Almost Core Egg White Open Omelette with ham, spinach, tomato and cheese sauce (+0.5)

Low fat, fluffy omelette with a smooth cheese sauce

Serves: 1
Difficulty: Fairly Easy
Points: 2.5pts or Core +0.5pts
Cooking time: 6-7 minutes

Ingredients:

• 4 egg whites
• 2 TB cottage cheese
• 30g of thin sliced smoked leg ham
• 1/2 a ripe tomato, sliced razor thin
• handfull of baby spinach
• * 1 x 97% fat free Kraft Single (trust me on this one, OK?)
• salt and pepper

Method:
Spray a bread and butter size non-stick skillet with a little oil and pre-heat on high.
Blend the egg whites and cottage cheese together for about a minute. You want it to thicken slightly and turn white, but not form peaks.
Pour the egg white mix into the pan and immediately turn down to medium.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes without a lid. The bottom of the omelette should look firm and set, but there will be fluff on the top third.
Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper
Cover the omelette with the ham, then the tomato, then the spinach.
Break the cheese slice into 3 pieces and spread across the spinach.
Put the lid on and cook for another 3 minutes. The aim here is to steam the spinach and tomato and combine the juices with the cheese slice to form a creamy light cheese sauce.
(If your skillet doesn't have a lid, put a metal baking tray on top and remove with a pot holder)
Slide a egg flip around the edges gently to loosen, then underneath. Now you can gently slide the omelette onto your plate.

For a more substantial meal, slide the omelete onto a rye mountain bread (+ 1 pt for Pointers) and roll up.
