Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large egg whites or 3/4 cup liquid egg whites
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers any color
  • 1/2 cup chopped spinach
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 1/4 cup diced mushrooms
  • 1 small tomato seeded and diced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs like parsley or chives

Instructions

  1. Wash and chop all vegetables into small even pieces. Dice bell peppers and onion into quarter inch pieces. Slice mushrooms thinly. Roughly chop spinach. Seed and dice tomato last.
  2. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell peppers. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook for another minute until they release moisture and start to brown slightly.
  4. Stir in chopped spinach and diced tomato. Cook for about 30 seconds until spinach just wilts.
  5. Reduce heat to medium low. Pour egg whites evenly over the cooked vegetables. Let sit undisturbed for 30 seconds.
  6. Gently stir with a silicone spatula, pushing cooked egg whites from edges toward center. Continue stirring gently until eggs are set but still soft and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  7. Remove from heat. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle fresh herbs on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can substitute any vegetables you have on hand like zucchini, broccoli, or leftover roasted vegetables. For extra protein, add a few tablespoons of cottage cheese or crumbled tofu with the egg whites. To save time, use liquid egg whites from a carton. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat with a splash of water.
