Begin by preparing the vegetables. Slice the mushrooms, chop the spinach leaves roughly, finely dice the red bell pepper and onion, and finely chop the fresh parsley.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, and low-fat milk until well combined and slightly frothy. Evenly whisking will add air into the mixture, making the omelette light and fluffy.
Season the egg mixture with salt and black pepper and gently stir to combine.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is warm, add the onions and cook them for about 2 minutes until they become translucent.
Add the sliced mushrooms and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms become golden brown and tender.
Stir in the spinach leaves and cook until they have wilted, which should take about 1 minute.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the cooked vegetables. Tilt the pan to ensure the eggs are evenly spread across the pan.
Lower the heat to medium-low and let the omelette cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift the edges and tilt the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath the cooked portion for even cooking.
When almost set, sprinkle the chopped parsley over one half of the omelette.
Carefully fold the omelette in half using the spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the inside is fully cooked.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy a heart-healthy meal packed with nutrition and flavor.
