Red and yellow bell peppers with basil and parmesan bring an egg white omelet to life and add a nice splash of color!
|
Ingredients:
1 tsp olive oil
4 egg whites
1/2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp black pepper
4 egg whites
1/2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp black pepper
Directions:
| 1 | In a large non-slice frying pan over medium heat, warm oil; add the red peppers and yellow peppers; cook stirring frequently for 4 to 5 minutes. |
| 2 | Keep warm over low heat. In a small bowl, lightly whisk together the egg whites, basil and black pepper. Coat a small non-stick frying pan with non-stick spray. |
| 3 | Warm over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add half of the egg mixture, swirling the pan to evenly coat the bottom. |
| 4 | Cook for 30 seconds or until the eggs are set. Carefully loosen and flip; cook for 1 minute, or until firm. |
| 5 | Sprinkle half of the peppers over the eggs. Fold to enclose the filling. Transfer to a plate. Sprinkle with 1 tsp of the Parmesan cheese. |
| 6 | Repeat with the remaining egg mixture, peppers and 1 tsp Parmesan cheese. |
| 7 | ENJOY! |
