Prep Time:10 mins

Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 8 large Egg whites
  • 2 cups Fresh spinach
  • 1 small Onion
  • 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
  • 1 spray Olive oil spray
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Separate the egg whites from the yolks, ensuring you have 8 large egg whites, and place them in a mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add 2 tablespoons of low-fat milk to the egg whites. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Peel and finely chop the small onion.

Step 4

Rinse the fresh spinach and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 5

Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and give it a light spray of olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Add the chopped onions to the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 7

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until it wilts. Stir occasionally.

Step 8

Pour the whisked egg whites into the skillet with the spinach and onions.

Step 9

Season with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.

Step 10

Continue stirring gently. Scramble the eggs by pushing them across the skillet with a spatula, from the edges to the center, until the eggs are just set but still soft, approximately 3-4 minutes.

Step 11

Remove from heat and serve immediately.
