A quick, nutritious, and light egg white omelette with fresh spinach and creamy avocado, perfect for weight loss and a healthy breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large egg whites (about 120 ml or 1/2 cup)
  • 1 cup fresh spinach (about 30 grams or 1 ounce), washed and roughly chopped
  • 1/2 medium ripe avocado, sliced or diced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Squeeze of lemon juice (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and roughly chop 1 cup fresh spinach. Slice or dice 1/2 ripe avocado and set aside. Separate 4 large egg whites into a bowl.
  2. Beat the egg whites with a whisk or fork until slightly frothy and homogenous, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium heat in a non-stick skillet. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, just until wilted (about 1-2 minutes). Season lightly with a pinch of salt and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder if using. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Wipe the skillet clean if needed, then lightly grease with a drop of oil or non-stick spray. Pour in the egg whites, spreading evenly. Cook over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes, until the edges start to set but the top is still slightly runny.
  5. Spoon the sautéed spinach over half of the omelette. Using a spatula, gently fold the other half over the spinach. Press lightly to seal, and cook for another 1-2 minutes to finish cooking through.
  6. Slide the omelette onto a plate and top with the fresh avocado. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of black pepper for a bright finish.

Notes

Use fresh egg whites for best texture. Cook on medium-low heat to avoid rubbery eggs. Pre-wilt spinach to prevent sogginess. Add a splash of water to egg whites before whisking for a fluffier omelette. Store avocado separately if saving leftovers to maintain texture.
