LEAN ’N’ MEAN TURKEY & SPINACH OMELET
Makes: 1 serving
Serving size: 1 omelet
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
INGREDIENTS
1⁄2 cup egg whites
3oz (85g) low-sodium turkey breast
1⁄2 cup baby spinach
1⁄2 medium avocado, sliced
DIRECTIONS
1 Spray a skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Place the skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Quickly pour the egg whites into the skillet. While sliding the skillet back and forth rapidly over the heat, quickly stir the eggs with a spatula to spread them continuously over the bottom of the skillet as they thicken.
2 Place the turkey and spinach on top of one half of the eggs, cover the skillet, and cook until the edges thicken and rise, about 1 to 2 minutes.
3 Use a spatula to carefully fold the other half of the eggs over the turkey and spinach. Gently transfer the omelet to a plate, place the avocado slices on top, and serve immediately.
PREP TIP
Lightly cook the turkey breast in a frying pan before cooking the eggs to add a smoky flavor.
