Ingredients

  • 1 can Olive oil spray
  • 6 large Egg whites
  • 120 grams Low-fat cooked ham or lean turkey ham
  • 60 grams Baby spinach leaves
  • 8 whole Cherry tomatoes
  • 0 to taste Black pepper
  • 0 to taste Salt
  • 10 grams Fresh chives

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing and organizing all your ingredients. Slice the low-fat cooked ham into strips, slice the cherry tomatoes in half, and chop the fresh chives finely.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with olive oil spray.

Step 3

Add the sliced ham to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until it starts to brown slightly.

Step 4

Add the baby spinach leaves to the skillet and cook along with the ham, stirring gently until the spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites together with a pinch of salt and black pepper until they are slightly frothy.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg whites into the skillet, gently stirring to distribute them evenly with the ham and spinach.

Step 7

Allow the eggs to cook without stirring for about 3-4 minutes, or until they just begin to set around the edges.

Step 8

Gently fold the egg mixture once or twice to allow the uncooked parts to flow to the skillet's surface, then sprinkle the halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the top.

Step 9

Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the egg whites are fully cooked and set.

Step 10

Divide the ham and egg mixture between two plates, garnish with the freshly chopped chives, and serve immediately.
