Ingredients

• 6 whole Egg whites
• 1 whole Whole egg
• 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
• 1 spray Olive oil spray
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the whole egg into a medium bowl and add the egg whites. Add the low-fat milk to the bowl.

Step 2

Whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined, and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Rinse the spinach leaves thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil spray to coat the bottom.

Step 5

Add the spinach leaves to the skillet and sauté for about 1 to 2 minutes or until wilted. Remove the spinach from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit without stirring for about 30 seconds to set slightly.

Step 7

With a spatula, gently stir the eggs in a figure-eight motion, bringing the cooked edges toward the center.

Step 8

Continue cooking the eggs, stirring gently, for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until they are softly set.

Step 9

Stir the wilted spinach back into the scrambled eggs and mix gently to combine.

Step 10

Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
