• Low Fat Milk: Using a touch of low ، milk helps to add to the lightness of this recipe.
• Olive Oil: A healthy oil to use in cooking, you only need one teas، of olive oil to keep the egg from sticking to the pan. Alternatively, you can melt ،er in the pan. 
• Spices: I really love to add ،es to my omelets for flavor wit،ut extra calories or ،. I suggest a pinch of salt, black pepper, brown mus، seeds, and turmeric (which also gives the omelet a yellow color).
• Fresh Veggies: When it comes to adding veggies you can get as creative as you like! My favorites to use include green bell peppers, red bell peppers, green onions, fresh spinach leaves, and diced plum tomatoes.

🍲 Ingredient Subs،utions

🔪 How To Make An Egg White Omelette

Here are the instructions on ،w to make a healthy omelette. 

Prep The Eggs: Combine a dash of salt, pepper, and low-، milk in a small bowl. Carefully whisk in egg whites until just blended (do not overbeat) and set aside.

Prep The Veggies: Heat olive oil in a large nonstick s،et over medium heat. Add mus، seeds and turmeric and cook for 30 seconds. Add onions, then the rest of the veggies, and sauté for 1 minute until the veggies are soft, stirring frequently.

Add Egg Mixture: Adjust the burner to medium-low heat. Pour the egg mixture into the center of the pan over the veggies, tilting the pan to spread the eggs out evenly around the edges of the pan.

Set: Allow the omelette mixture to cook flat in the pan until the edges of the omelette begin to set (about 2 minutes).

Cook Evenly: Slide the front edge of a heat-proof spatula between one side of the omelet and the pan. Gently lift the side of the omelet, tilting the pan to allow some uncooked egg mixture to run onto the pan. Repeat this procedure on the opposite edge. Continue cooking until the center is set (about 2 minutes). 

Fold Omelette & Plate: Loosen the omelet from the pan with the spatula and fold the omelette into a half-moon shape. Carefully slide this perfect egg white omelet onto a plate and enjoy!

💭 Expert Tips

• Add a little bit of egg yolk: Personally, I like making my omelets with a dash of milk, 3 egg whites, and a tiny bit of yolk for color and flavor. But you can omit the egg yolk altogether if you want a completely egg white omelette!
• Use a nonstick pan: The key to easy egg white recipes is a no-mess pan! Use a nonstick s،et to keep the eggs from sticking 
• Allow eggs to set: When you first add the egg mixture to the pan, leave the egg alone to set for a few seconds before tou،g it to allow the edges to set. 
• Don’t overstuff: Be careful not to put too many ingredients inside the omelet because it will be difficult to fold. I recommend not c،osing more than 3 filling ingredients for best results.

📖 Variations

• Add Cheese: For extra creamy flavor add shredded cheese to the top of your omelet! Try cotija cheese, parmesan cheese, feta cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, or goat cheese. I don’t recommend adding ،-free cheese because it doesn’t melt well.
• Garnish With Toppings: For an extra garnish, add sauteed red peppers, green peppers, or fresh herbs on top of the finished omelet. Or top with avocado or cottage cheese for a more filling meal to add more protein and healthy ،s. 
• Customize Fillings: Make this healthy omelet recipe your own by adding your desired delicious filling. Add any fresh ingredients like diced yellow onion or red onion, cherry tomatoes, leafy greens, sauteed mushrooms, or kalamata olives!
• Seasonings: Swap the seasonings for a more herbal flavor by sprinkling the whisked egg whites with Italian seasoning before cooking. Or sprinkle the omelet with red chili flakes or some ،t sauce for extra ،e.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

This healthy omelette is a great high-protein breakfast or any-time meal. Enjoy it as is or pair it with a side of fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, toast, or crispy bacon. Don’t forget the fresh juice and coffee! You can also enjoy this omelet alongside a salad and healthy low-calorie biscuits for a heartier brunch or dinner.

🙌 Dietary Adaptions

• Vegan: Make recipes with egg whites vegan by subs،uting real eggs with Just Egg! 
• Dairy-Free: Omit the milk to make this egg-white omelette dairy-free. 

🫙 Storage Directions

• Storing: If you have leftovers, allow the egg white omelette to cool completely to room temperature before storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. I do not recommend freezing egg white recipes, as the eggs don’t freeze well, and change texture when thawed and reheated.
• Reheating: Reheat leftovers in the microwave on medium heat until heated through.
