Ingredients

Egg

1 large egg(s)

Egg whites

2 large

Table salt

1 pinch(es), or to taste

Black pepper

1 pinch(es), or to taste

Olive oil

½ tsp

Scallions

1 medium, finely chopped

Tomato

1 small, seeded and diced

Olives

3 olive(s), large, sliced

Canned diced green chiles

1 Tbsp

Shredded reduced fat Mexican-style cheese

2 Tbsp

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, egg white, salt and pepper just until blended; set aside.
  2. In a large, nonstick omelet pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add egg mixture and tilt pan so eggs cover entire pan bottom. Cook, without stirring, until bottom of eggs begins to set, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle scallion, tomato, olives, chili peppers and cheese evenly across eggs.
  3. Cook eggs, moving pan back and forth over heat, until cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes; fold in half to serve.
  4. Yields 1 serving.
