Ingredients
-
deli ham (low-sodium, extra lean, chopped)
- 4 oz
- 113 g
-
-
sweet onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 cup
- 237 g
-
-
egg substitute
- 1 1/2 cup
- 355 g
-
-
cheddar cheese (reduced-fat, sharp shredded)
- 1/2 cup
- 118 g
-
Directions
-
Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Coat the skillet with nonstick cooking spray, add ham, and cook until beginning to lightly brown, about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from skillet and set aside on separate plate.
-
Reduce the heat to medium, coat the skillet with nonstick cooking spray, add onions, and cook 4 minutes or until beginning to turn golden, stirring frequently.
-
Reduce the heat to medium low, add ham to the onions, and cook 1 minute (this allows the flavors to blend and the skillet to cool slightly before the eggs are added). Pour egg substitute evenly over all, cover and cook 8 minutes or until puffy and set.
-
Remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle cheese evenly over all, cover and let stand 3 minutes to melt the cheese and develop flavors.
