Mushroom and egg white omelet with olive oil and seasonings

This healthy and delicious mushroom and egg white omelet is a perfect choice for a nutritious breakfast or light meal. Using simple ingredients like egg whites, mushrooms, olive oil, and basic seasonings, this recipe is both easy to prepare and packed with protein and flavor.

Ingredients:

4 egg whites
130g
2 tbsp milk (3.25% fat)
30g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
1 tsp olive oil
4.50g
1 cup mushrooms
70g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Gather all your ingredients.
- Slice the mushrooms if not already sliced.
2. Mushroom Sauté:
- Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet.
- Sauté the mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly golden. Stir occasionally.
- Once cooked, remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- In a medium bowl, whisk the 4 egg whites until they are slightly frothy.
- Add the 2 tbsp of milk, a dash of salt, and a dash of black pepper to the egg whites. Whisk to combine all the ingredients.
4. Cook the Omelet:
- Using the same skillet, pour in the egg white mixture.
- Let the mixture cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
- Gently lift the edges with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg whites to flow to the edges of the skillet.
- Continue cooking until the egg whites are almost fully set, about another 1-2 minutes.
5. Add the Mushrooms:
- Evenly distribute the sautéed mushrooms over one half of the omelet.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the mushrooms using a spatula.
6. Finish Cooking:
- Continue to cook for another 1 minute, or until the omelet is fully set and heated through.
7. Serving:
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Serve immediately while hot.

Tips:

- For a fluffier omelet, whisk the egg whites thoroughly until they are frothy before cooking.

- Use a non-stick pan to prevent the omelet from sticking and to make flipping easier.

- Cook the mushrooms until they are fully softened to bring out their rich, earthy flavor.

- Feel free to add other veggies like spinach, bell peppers, or onions for extra flavor and nutrients.

- Serve the omelet with a side of whole-grain toast or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

With minimal effort and just a few ingredients, you can create a satisfying and nutritious meal that's ideal for any time of the day. This mushroom and egg white omelet is a versatile dish that can be easily adapted with your favorite vegetables or additional seasonings to suit your taste.
