Mushroom Spinach Omelet

SUBMITTED BY: Arlene Hammonds

"'I lightened up this savory dish by using olive oil, one regular egg and three egg whites, explains Arlene Hammonds of Gray, Tennessee. 'For a change of pace, I like to mix diced celery and parsley with different cheeses.'"

1 egg
3 egg whites
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon shredded Cheddar cheese

In a small bowl, beat the egg and egg whites. Add cheeses, salt, pepper flakes, garlic powder and pepper; mix well. Set aside.
In an 8-in. nonstick skillet, saute the mushrooms, green pepper and onion in oil for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Add spinach; cook and stir until spinach is wilted. Add egg mixture. As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. Cut into wedges. Serve immediately.
