Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs Egg whites
- 28 grams Mozzarella cheese (low-fat, shredded)
- 1 handful Spinach (fresh)
- 4 pieces Cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 leaves Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Crack 4 large eggs and separate the egg whites from the yolks. Discard the yolks or save them for another recipe. Whisk the egg whites in a bowl until they are frothy and slightly airy.
Add the salt and black pepper to the whisked egg whites and mix gently to combine.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring the surface is evenly coated.
Once the pan is hot, pour in the whisked egg whites and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set but the surface is still slightly wet.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella on one half of the omelette. Add the fresh spinach and halved cherry tomatoes on top of the mozzarella.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Press down gently to seal the edges.
Cook the folded omelette for another 2-3 minutes on low heat, or until the cheese is melted and the egg whites are fully cooked through.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy a healthy, delicious breakfast!
