Ingredients

  • 4 large Egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons Low-fat ricotta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Skim milk
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.125 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 spray Non-stick cooking spray
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, low-fat ricotta cheese, skim milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 2

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and coat it lightly with a single spray of non-stick cooking spray.

Step 3

Pour the egg white mixture into the heated skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds until it begins to set around the edges.

Step 4

Using a heatproof spatula, gently stir and fold the eggs, pushing them from the edges towards the center. Continue cooking and folding until the eggs are just set but still slightly creamy.

Step 5

Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese over the scrambled eggs and fold gently to incorporate the cheese. Allow it to melt slightly, about 1 minute.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to a plate.

Step 7

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
