Ingredients

  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Skim Milk
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 spritz Cooking Spray
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped Fresh Parsley
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Onions
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Bell Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Low-Fat Shredded Cheese

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the skim milk. Whisk together until the eggs are well beaten and the mixture is slightly frothy.

Step 2

Season the egg mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Prepare any additional fillings, such as chopping the onions and bell pepper, if not already done.

Step 4

Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and give it a light spritz of cooking spray.

Step 5

Add the chopped onions and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté them for 2-3 minutes until they are tender and slightly translucent.

Step 6

Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly across the skillet and pour the beaten egg mixture over the top.

Step 7

Let the eggs cook without stirring for about 1-2 minutes, or until they begin to set around the edges but remain soft in the center.

Step 8

Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheese over one half of the omelet and allow it to melt slightly.

Step 9

Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelet over the cheese and hold for a few seconds to set.

Step 10

Transfer the omelet to a plate, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
