Ingredients
- 4 Egg whites
- 1 oz Goat cheese
- 4 spears Asparagus
- 1/2 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 handful Basil
Steps
- Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil, trim the tough ends off the asparagus, and blanch the spears for 2 minutes until bright green and just tender; drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking.
- Slice the blanched asparagus into 1-inch pieces and halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Crack the egg whites into a bowl and whisk briefly with a pinch of salt until slightly frothy.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat with a light slick of oil or cooking spray, then pour in the whites and swirl to coat the pan.
- Cook 2-3 minutes without stirring until the top looks just set — mostly firm with only a slight sheen — then sprinkle on the asparagus, tomatoes, and crumbled goat cheese.
- Fold the omelet in half with a spatula, slide it onto a warm plate, and shower with torn basil. Season with salt and pepper and eat while the cheese is still creamy.
