Ingredients
- 8 large egg whites
- 2 tablespoons skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 spray cooking spray
- 1 medium tomato
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 small jalapeño
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the salsa first. Dice the tomato, finely chop the red onion, and coarsely chop the fresh cilantro.
Step 2
For less heat, remove the seeds and finely chop the jalapeño. Keep the seeds if you prefer your salsa spicier.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine diced tomato, chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and lime juice. Mix well and set aside.
Step 4
In a bowl, whisk together egg whites, skim milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 5
Spray a non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and place it over medium heat.
Step 6
Pour the egg white mixture into the heated pan, allowing it to cook without stirring until it begins to set around the edges.
Step 7
Gently stir the eggs using a spatula, allowing the uncooked parts to flow to the edges. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and slightly creamy.
Step 8
Divide the scrambled eggs onto two plates and top each portion with an equal amount of the prepared salsa. Serve immediately.
