A quick and healthy egg white scramble with colorful veggies, perfect for meal prep and busy weekdays. This recipe is simple, nutritious, and customizable to your taste.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) egg whites (liquid or separated fresh eggs)
  • ½ cup (75 g) diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
  • 1 handful (about 30 g) baby spinach
  • ½ cup (75 g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup (40 g) finely chopped red onion
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs like parsley or chives, chopped (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) grated sharp cheddar or feta cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep your veggies: dice bell peppers, halve cherry tomatoes, finely chop red onion, mince garlic, and roughly chop fresh herbs.
  2. Whisk 1 cup (240 ml) of egg whites lightly until just blended to keep the scramble fluffy.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil. Warm until shimmering but not smoking (about 1-2 minutes).
  4. Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan. Stir frequently for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened, but not browned.
  5. Add diced bell peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender but still slightly crunchy.
  6. Stir in halved cherry tomatoes and spinach leaves. Cook for 1-2 minutes until spinach wilts and tomatoes soften slightly.
  7. Reduce heat to low and pour whisked egg whites evenly over the veggies. Let sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to start setting.
  8. Gently scramble eggs by pushing from edges toward the center, allowing uncooked whites to flow underneath. Continue until eggs are mostly set but still moist, about 2-3 minutes.
  9. Sprinkle optional cheese over the scramble and fold in gently. Remove from heat and stir in fresh herbs.
  10. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let scramble cool slightly before dividing into meal prep containers.

Notes

Keep heat low when cooking egg whites to avoid dryness. Do not over-stir; gently fold eggs for soft curds. Let scramble cool completely before storing to prevent condensation. Use fresh herbs at the end for brightness. Optional cheese adds creaminess but can be omitted for dairy-free version. Can swap veggies seasonally or add spices for variation.
