A go-to recipe when your garden’s at its peak. If you have some sweet tomatoes on hand, chop them and add them to the filling.

Ingredients

Zucchini

1 small, cut into julienne

Egg whites

2 serving(s), large

Raw egg

1 large

Table salt

¼ tsp(s), or to taste

Black pepper

pinch(es)

Soft-type goat cheese

2 tbsp(s), crumbled

Fresh basil

1 tbsp(s), cut into ribbons (or more to taste)

Olive oil cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Coat an omelet pan with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add zucchini to pan; cook, tossing frequently, until tender crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove zucchini from pan; set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat egg whites, egg, salt and pepper until frothy.
  3. Off heat, coat pan with cooking spray again; heat over medium heat. Pour eggs into pan and tilt pan to cover entire surface evenly with eggs; cook until bottom is set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
