Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Set your waffle iron to a low or medium setting and allow it to preheat. Lightly coat both the top and bottom plates with cooking spray.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites and whole eggs. Whisk vigorously until well blended and slightly frothy.
-
Add the shredded cheese, diced turkey sausage, bell peppers, onions, and black pepper to the eggs. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Pour a portion of the egg mixture onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, ensuring not to overfill. Close the lid gently. Cook for approximately 3-5 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the surface is lightly golden. Cooking times may vary depending on your waffle iron; monitor closely to prevent overcooking.
-
Carefully remove the omelette from the waffle iron using a spatula. Repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture. Serve warm, garnished with chives.
