Tomato Mozzarella Egg White Omelet Food

FRESH TOMATO OMELETS WITH MOZZARELLA CHEESE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together eggs, salt and pepper. Coat an unheated 8-inch nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat over medium heat. Pour 1/2 cup of the egg mixture into the hot skillet.
• Immediately begin stirring egg mixture gently but continuously with a wooden or plastic spatula until mixture resembles small pieces of cooked egg surrounded by liquid egg. Stop stirring. Cook for 30 to 60 seconds more or until egg mixture is set but shiny.
• Sprinkle half of the oregano onto eggs. Place 2 slices of tomato on top of one half of the egg mixture in skillet. Top with half of the shredded mozzarella.
• With a spatula, lift and fold opposite edge of the omelet over tomato slices. Transfer to a warm plate. Repeat with remaining egg mixture, oregano, tomato and cheese to make another omelet.

TOMATO MOZZARELLA EGG WHITE OMELET

Steps:

• Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat.
• When hot, add the oil and tomatoes, season with salt and pepper.
• Cook about 1 minute, then add egg whites.
• Top with shredded mozzarella and parmesan.
• Cover and reduce heat to low.
• Cook until the eggs are completely set.
• Top with fresh herbs if desired.

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.

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.
