Ingredients

  • 6 large egg whites
  • ½ medium bell pepper, diced
  • ½ medium zucchini, diced
  • ¼ medium red onion, diced
  • ¾ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 8-inch flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 0.5 tbsp butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium. Add diced pepper, zucchini, and onion; sauté 4 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Pour egg whites over vegetables. Let sit 30 seconds, then gently push cooked edges toward center, tilting pan so uncooked egg flows to edges.

  3. 3

    When top still jiggles slightly but edges are set, sprinkle 0.5 cup cheese over half. Fold in half; slide onto a plate.

  4. 4

    Wipe skillet clean. Add remaining 0.5 tbsp butter over medium. Place one tortilla in pan; sprinkle 0.25 cup cheese on half side.

  5. 5

    Cook 1 minute until tortilla edges brown slightly, then fold in half. Cook 1 more minute per side until golden and cheese melts.

  6. 6

    Repeat with second tortilla and remaining cheese. Serve omelette and both quesadillas together.
