Healthy Egg White Omelet Recipes

EGG WHITE OMELET

Steps:

• Heat butter or oil in a small nonstick skillet over low heat. Meanwhile, whisk together egg whites and salt, incorporating a lot of air, which will ensure that the omelet is light and fluffy. Be sure not to do this in advance or the egg whites will deflate.
• Place your hand directly above the skillet. When your palm feels warm, the skillet is ready to start cooking. Working quickly, pour whisked eggs into the heated skillet. While shaking skillet back and forth over heat, stir with a heatproof rubber spatula for less than 1 minute. You want to keep eggs moving, incorporating any runny parts and some curds begin to form.
• Continue cooking, making sure eggs cover the entire surface of the skillet and using a spatula to push together any holes that may have formed. Top with one or more desired fillings.
• Run the spatula along right side of omelet to loosen eggs from skillet. Place spatula under right side of eggs, making sure that the spatula is well underneath the eggs to offer maximum support, and lift right side over left in one fluid motion. Folded omelet should look like a half-moon.
• Lightly press down on omelet with the spatula to seal omelet together. Do not press hard; you do not want to flatten the curds. Check to make sure the handle of the skillet is still facing directly out toward you.
• Lift up skillet with one hand, and hold a plate with your other hand. Tilt skillet, and let the curved edge of the omelet slide onto the plate.

FLUFFY EGG WHITE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick 8-inch skillet over medium heat, 2-3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, vigorously whisk the egg whites with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, until frothy. Whisk in the parmesan.
• Using a spatula, fold the green onions and tomatoes into the egg whites. You can also scatter the vegetables on top of the eggs after you pour them into the skillet, as shown in the video. But I prefer the method of stirring them into the eggs before you pour them into the skillet.
• Lightly spray the skillet with olive oil spray, then pour the egg whites in and start cooking them, tilting the skillet to spread them evenly.
• As soon as the edges start to set, reduce the heat to medium-low. Gently and repeatedly lift the edges of the omelet, and tilt the skillet to allow the still-runny egg whites to slide to the bottom of the pan, where they will cook faster. The video below shows you how to do that.
• When the bottom of the omelet is cooked and the top is not runny anymore but still wet, carefully flip the omelet. I sometimes use two large spatulas for this task. Another method, shown in the video below, is to place a large heatproof plate on top of the skillet (careful - it will be hot), invert the omelet into the plate, then slide it back into the pan, cooked side up.
• After flipping the omelet, keep cooking it for just a few more seconds, then turn the heat off.
• Fold the omelet, slide it onto a plate, and serve.

EASY EGG WHITE OMELET

Steps:

• Spray a 9x5-inch glass or microwave-safe loaf pan with cooking spray; sprinkle the onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms into the pan, and toss lightly with a fork just to mix. Season with salt and black pepper, and pour in the egg whites.
• Cook in a microwave oven on High setting for 3 minutes. Remove and stir the cooked egg white from the side of the pan into the rest of the ingredients; cook for 3 more minutes on High. If the omelet is still a little runny on top, slice it into chunks and turn them over in the loaf pan; microwave for 30 more seconds on High. Adjust salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, add egg whites, ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper; whisk until frothy and set aside.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, add butter and when hot, add onions and mushrooms; season with ground sea salt. Sauté the ingredients until nicely cooked, about 1 ½ minutes. Add tomatoes and season with hot sauce; sauté for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl.
• Wipe the skillet and return to the heat; set the temperature to medium-low. Spray generously with cooking spray. Pour in egg white mixture, swirl to cover bottom evenly and cook until set, about 3 to 4 minutes or until the edges set and release from the pan, lifting with a spatula. Spoon onion mixture on half of the omelet, sprinkle cheese on top and then fold it over. Cook until cheese has melted, about 1 minute. Slide omelet onto a serving plate. Makes 1 large omelet.
