Spinach, Tomato and Cheddar Omelet
Microwave/Cook Time: 11 minutes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Ingredients:
1
package (6 ounces) fresh spinach

Nonstick cooking spray

3
cups cholesterol-free egg substitute

2
plum tomatoes, diced (about 3/4 cup)

1
cup (4 ounces) finely shredded reduced-fat extra-sharp Cheddar cheese

1/4
teaspoon black pepper (optional)



Preparation:
1.
Rinse spinach; drain, leaving water clinging to leaves. Place in large microwavable bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH about 3 minutes or until spinach wilts. Drain spinach; set aside.

2.
Spray 8-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Pour 3/4 cup egg substitute into skillet; cook about 2 minutes or until omelet is set, lifting edge of egg to allow uncooked portion to flow underneath.

3.
Spoon 1/4 of spinach and 1/4 of tomatoes over half of omelet; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese and pepper, if desired. Fold opposite half of omelet over filling. Transfer omelet to plate. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese. Repeat with remaining egg substitute, spinach, tomatoes and cheese to make 3 more omelets.
