Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Gather all ingredients.

Step 2

Whisk egg whites and egg together in a small bowl. Mix in Parmesan, Cheddar, salt, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, nutmeg, and pepper.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté mushrooms, green onions, and bell pepper until tender, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add spinach and cook until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in tomato, then pour in egg mixture. As egg mixture starts to set, lift the edges and let the uncooked portion flow underneath.

Step 5

Cook until egg mixture sets, 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
