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.

EGG WHITE OMELET WITH PARMESAN AND TARRAGON

Steps:

• Prepare the egg whites: In a bowl, whisk the egg whites with the salt and a pinch of pepper. Whisk only enough to integrate the eggs. You don't want to whip too much air into them or make them frothy.
• Cook the omelet: Place a 6-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Swirl the butter around as it melts so it coats the whole surface of the pan. When the butter is melted (but not browned), reduce the heat and pour in the egg whites. Use a fork to stir the eggs slightly, as if you were scrambling them. Then allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the tarragon and cheese over the eggs, and then squeeze a little juice from the lemon wedge over the top.
• Finish: Lift the handle of the pan up, tilting the pan away from you and toward the heat. Fold the edge of the omelet closest to you toward the center. Fold the other edge toward the center and tilt the pan over the center of a plate so it lands seam-side down. Butter the omelet, if desired. Serve immediately.

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.

HERBED EGG WHITE OMELET WITH TOMATOES

Steps:

• Position a rack on the shelf closest to the broiler, and preheat the broiler to high heat.
• Toss the tomatoes with the vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Warm a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until foamy and doubled in volume; season with salt and pepper and whisk in the parsley. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil to the skillet. Pour the whites into the skillet and swirl to cover entire skillet. Cook, without stirring, until the whites are almost set and light brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer the skillet under the broiler and cook until the omelet sets and begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Spoon half of the tomato salad onto half of the omelet and fold the omelet over the filling. Transfer omelet to a serving platter and scatter the remaining tomato salad on top. Serve with the baby greens on the side.

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Pour the whites into the skillet and swirl to cover entire skillet. Cook, without stirring, until the whites are almost set and light brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the omelet sets and begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Spoon half of the cucumber salad onto half of the omelet and fold the omelet over the filling. Transfer omelet to a serving platter and scatter the remaining cucumber salad on top.

EGG WHITE FRITTATA WITH ARUGULA, TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚. Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until tender and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the arugula and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low.
• Beat the egg whites and mustard in a medium bowl with a mixer on high speed until foamy.
• Return the heat to medium and pour the egg white mixture into the skillet. Cook until the bottom is set, lifting the edges occasionally to allow the raw egg whites to drip to the bottom of the skillet, about 3 minutes. Top with the tomato slices and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Top evenly with the goat cheese.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the eggs are set, about 8 minutes. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and a sprinkle of basil, if desired.
