Separate the egg whites from the yolks, ensuring you have 8 large egg whites, and place them in a mixing bowl.
Add 2 tablespoons of low-fat milk to the egg whites. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
Peel and finely chop the small onion.
Rinse the fresh spinach and pat dry with paper towels.
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and give it a light spray of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Add the chopped onions to the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until it wilts. Stir occasionally.
Pour the whisked egg whites into the skillet with the spinach and onions.
Season with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.
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.
Remove from heat and serve immediately.
