Ingredients

  • 6 large egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons skim milk
  • 3 ounces lean ham
  • 0.5 medium red bell pepper
  • 0.5 medium green bell pepper
  • 0.25 medium red onion
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 spray olive oil spray
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Chop the lean ham into small cubes. Dice the red and green bell peppers, and finely chop the red onion.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and skim milk until well combined. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Lightly spray a non-stick frying pan with olive oil spray and heat over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced ham to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.

Step 5

Add the red onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the pan. Sauté for another 3 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 6

Add the baby spinach to the pan and cook for an additional minute, until wilted.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg white mixture over the vegetables and ham in the pan. Allow it to sit without stirring for about 30 seconds.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently stir and scramble the eggs, cooking slowly to ensure they remain tender. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still moist, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 9

Remove from heat promptly to prevent overcooking. Serve immediately on warm plates and enjoy your healthy, low-fat breakfast!
