Healthy Breakfast Recipe
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 egg whites
1/2 teaspoon basil, dried
2 teaspoons Parmesan cheese, grated and divided
One sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
One yellow pepper, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
In a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat, warm oil; add the red peppers and yellow peppers; cook stirring frequently for 4 to 5 minutes. Keep warm over low heat. In a small bowl, lightly whisk together the egg whites, basil and black pepper.
Coat a small non-stick frying pan with non-stick spray. Warm over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add half of the egg mixture, swirling the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 30 seconds or until the eggs are set.
Carefully loosen and flip. Cook for 1 minute, or until firm. Sprinkle half of the peppers over the eggs. Fold to enclose the filling. Transfer to a plate. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of Parmesan. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture, peppers and 1 teaspoon Parmesan. Recipe makes two servings.
