Packed with protein from the turkey and egg whites, and loaded with the nutritious goodness of mushrooms and spinach, this omelet is as well-balanced as it is flavorful.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onion.
- Slice the mushrooms.
- Dice the turkey ham.
- Roughly chop the spinach.
- Shred the cheddar cheese.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat it with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
- Add the chopped onions and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté them for about 3-4 minutes, or until they start to soften.
- Add the diced turkey ham to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the turkey ham is lightly browned and the vegetables are tender.
- Add the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set it aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and the whole egg until well combined.
- Reheat the skillet over medium-low heat. Lightly grease the skillet again if necessary.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure it evenly coats the bottom.
- Cook the eggs undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set but the center is still slightly runny.
- Evenly distribute the turkey, spinach, and mushroom mixture over one half of the omelet.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the filling ingredients.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the empty half of the omelet over the side with the filling.
- Gently press down to seal the edges and allow the cheese to melt.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the omelet is cooked through and the cheese is melted.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Cut it in half if desired and serve immediately.
Tips:
- To save time in the morning, pre-chop your onions, mushrooms, and turkey ham the night before.
- For a fluffier omelet, whisk the egg whites and the whole egg thoroughly until frothy.
- Cook the vegetables first until they are softened before adding the egg mixture to ensure even cooking.
- If you like a bit of spice, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture.
- Use a non-stick pan for easy flipping, and cook the omelet on medium-low heat to avoid burning.
- Fold the omelet gently to keep it from falling apart, and serve it immediately for the best taste and texture.
This Turkey, Spinach, and Mushroom Omelet offers a perfect blend of flavors and textures, making it an ideal choice for a wholesome breakfast or brunch. With its high protein content and nutritious ingredients, it's sure to keep you energized throughout the day. Enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
