Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg whites and low-fat milk until well combined and frothy.

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for about 2 minutes until the onion is translucent.

Stir in the spinach and cherry tomatoes, cooking until the spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low, and pour the egg white mixture into the skillet with the vegetables.
Step 7
Gently stir the mixture, scrambling the eggs slowly to ensure even cooking and to keep them fluffy.
