Ingredients

  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 pinch ground Himalayan pink salt, or to taste and divided
  • 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper, or to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
  • 1 tbsp. clarified butter or ghee tips & tricks
  • 1/4 cup red onions, finely chopped Footnote
  • 3 large mushrooms, washed and sliced
  • 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, washed and quartered
  • 1/2 tsp. hot sauce of your choice, or to taste
  • 1/4 cup sharp Cheddar cheese, or to taste

Directions

  • In a mixing bowl, add egg whites, ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper; whisk until frothy and set aside.
  • In a small skillet over medium heat, add butter and when hot, add onions and mushrooms; season with ground sea salt. Sauté the ingredients until nicely cooked, about 1 ½ minutes. Add tomatoes and season with hot sauce; sauté for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl.
  • Wipe the skillet and return to the heat; set the temperature to medium-low. Spray generously with cooking spray.
  • Pour in the egg white mixture, swirl to cover the bottom evenly. Cook until it set, about 3 to 4 minutes or until the edges set and release from the pan, lifting with a spatula.
  • Spoon the onion mixture on half of the omelet, sprinkle the cheese on top and then fold it over. Cook until the cheese has melted, about 1 minute.
  • Slide the omelet onto a serving plate.

Notes

Footnote: I used up leftovers so by all means do the same... This recipe is just a guideline of what you can use.
