Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves, chopped
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (such as parsley or chives), chopped (optional)

Instructions

Step 1:Prepare the Ingredients

  • Separate the egg whites from the yolks and place the egg whites in a bowl. Whisk them lightly until frothy.
  • Wash and chop the spinach leaves.
  • Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Step 2:Cook the Spinach and Onion

  • Heat the olive oil (or use cooking spray) in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3:Cook the Egg Whites

  • Wipe the skillet clean and reapply a small amount of olive oil or cooking spray.
  • Pour the whisked egg whites into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread them evenly over the surface.
  • Cook the egg whites over medium-low heat until they start to set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4:Add the Filling

  • Evenly distribute the cooked spinach and onion mixture over one half of the omelette.
  • Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the spinach mixture.

Step 5:Fold the Omelette and Serve

  • Using a spatula, carefully fold the empty half of the omelette over the filling side.
  • Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the egg whites are fully set and the cheese is slightly melted.
  • Slide the omelette onto a plate.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped herbs, if desired.

Notes

  • To add more flavor, you can sauté some diced tomatoes or bell peppers along with the spinach and onion.
  • For a fluffier omelette, you can whisk a splash of milk or water into the egg whites before cooking.
  • Serve the omelette with a side of whole grain toast or fresh fruit for a balanced meal.
