White Omelet
I’m the type of person who dislikes throwing food in the garbage. At the prices we pay 🏧, I like to salvage as much as I can by using it in other recipes or creating new dishes. A perfect example is eggs. How many times does a recipe call for egg yolks only? No problem, but what should I do with the egg whites?
If you use them for another recipe, great, otherwise they can be frozen for up to 2 ½ months 📆 or kept in the refrigerator for 2 days. There’s a healthy breakfast dish that I like to use them in and it’s when I make my White Omelet!
I love making this breakfast item. It’s light, fluffy and there’s no wast of food. I also use up my leftover veggies… you know when there’s only 1 or 2 green onions in the crisper, half a tomato 🍅 sitting upside down on a plate, an eighth of a bell pepper in the keeper, and so on.
I find that regular omelets, quiches, and frittatas are also good for using up leftovers 🍄. They’re amazing recipes so check them out…
There’s nothing wrong being frugal with your money, and this White Omelet recipe is a good way to salvage the egg whites as well as other veggies sitting in your refrigerator. With a little seasoning, salt and pepper, some grated cheese 🧀 of your choice, you’ve got yourself a delicious, healthy breakfast made with leftovers… awesome, isn’t it?

Ingredients
- 4 egg whites
- 1 pinch ground Himalayan pink salt, or to taste and divided

love, love, love it!!!
Just subscribed to your YT channel. Wow, you’re quite the chef!
Thank you Marge, you’re very sweet, and welcome to the Club! Enjoy your evening 🌛.
I liked it but my husband didn’t. Any ideas on how I can enhance the recipe for him?
We’re a family of six and I try to salvage everything. This is a great recipe and the directions are spot on.
my favorite breakfast! so light and filling.
I made it and wasn’t crazy about it. I prefer regular omelettes.
In that case, you should try these ones… Denver Omelet or Soufflé Mexican Omelet. Have a gorgeous day, Val 🌞.
Very delicate and versatile!
That Looks Awesome !!! Yum.
I don’t know why but mine was still raw in the middle
Sorry to hear. You might have flipped it too early or the heat 🔥 was too high.
I freeze mine as well and make meringe and angel food cake. I’ll be trying the omelet, thanks
yummy
Amazing as usual to try my dear healthy yet delicious 😋😋😋
Thanks very much, Hanan! Have a nice day 🌞.
so do you freeze the egg whites?? i have to open 3 or 4 eggs and use the egg whites. and then i’ve tried to freeze the nice yolks (i get farm raised eggs) so the beautiful yolk i would have 3 or 4 yolks to freeze. How do i save them safely. i don’t even really know what to make from like 10 egg yolks a week.
You can make Hollandaise sauce, Custard, Aïoli, Orange Curd, Ice Cream, Mayonnaise, Caesar Salad dressing, and many more. Have a nice evening 🌜.
I love all your recipes! I’ve been using a lot of them in my everyday cooking and sharing the videos with my mother that lives in Canada. You have become our go to for recipes. With covid-19 it’s been hard to get out here to do our regular grocery shopping and you have been a savior, especially with your hamburger and hotdog buns recipe. So nice and light, we love them. Un gros gros Merci de Tennessee! ❤️❤️❤️
OMG! I’m very touched by your lovely comments 🙏. I’m so happy you’re enjoying Club Foody and its recipes. Thank you Gerene! Have a fabulous day and say “bonjour” 👋 to your mother up here in Canada.
