1 cup liquid egg substitute
4 eggs
1/4 cup fat-free milk
2 tablespoons chopped scallions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1" pieces
1/4 cup water
4 tablespoons crumbled reduced-fat goat cheese
Chives, for garnish
1. In medium bowl, whisk together the egg substitute, eggs, and milk. Stir in the scallions, thyme, parsley, pepper, and salt.
2. Place the asparagus and water in a large microwaveable bowl. Cover with vented plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 4 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
3. Stop and stir after 2 minutes. Drain, pat dry, and add to the egg mixture.
Heat a medium nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat.
4. Pour one-quarter of the egg mixture into the skillet, allowing it to cover the bottom of the pan.
5. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom just begins to set. Sprinkle with 1 tabelspoon of the cheese.
6. Add one-quarter of the asparagus pieces. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the eggs are almost set.
7. Using a large spatula, fold the omelet in half. Cook for 3 minutes, or until the omelet is golden and the cheese is melted. Turn onto a plate and keep warm.
8. Coat the skillet with cooking spray and repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more omelets. Garnish with the chives.
Jumpstart your morning with this hearty omelet! The creamy texture of the goat cheese perfectly complements the crunchy asparagus.
