How To Make spinach cheese omelette

Step 1

Beat the egg whites, egg and salt together lightly. Add pepper.

Step 2

Heat a nonstick omelette pan (5" to 6") or a small nonstick saute pan to medium/high heat.
Step 3

Coat the pan with nonstick cooking spray and pour in all the egg mixture.
Step 4

While tilting the pan, lightly stir the mixture with the flat part of a fork until most of the egg has thickened.
Step 5

Put the pan directly on the heat for another 20 to 30 seconds to set the eggs.
Step 6

Top (mostly in the middle) with the cheese and spinach.
Step 7

Use a nonmetal spatula to immediately lift under the edges and fold the omelette in half while sliding it out of the pan onto a plate.
Step 8

Garnish with parsley.
