Ingredients

1 egg2 egg whites (medium eggs)1.2 oz. roughly grated gouda cheese1 whole medium sliced tomato5 Tbsp roughly cut fresh basil leaves1/2 tsp garlic powderdash salt3/4 cup mushrooms1/4 to 1/2 tbsp olive oil

Directions

Begin frying mushrooms in oil (sunflower or safflower oil would actually be a better choice, I just grabbed the olive oil first!) over medium heat. In a seperate bowl add egg, egg whites, a splash of water, garlic powder (and a dash of salt/pepper if you want) and whisk for several minutes. Spray a large frying pan with cooking spray and allow to preheat (medium heat) for several minutes. Slowly add the egg mixture, making sure it spreads out evenly in a large cirlcle. After a few minutes, begin loosening the edges. When the omelette is solid on top and lightly brown on the bottom, flip it. On half of the cooked side place sliced tomatoes, fresh basil, cooked mushrooms and then the cheese. Fold the omelette in half and allow to cook for several minutes then flip to the other side (carefully, work a large flipper all the way under it length wise). After a minute or two longer plate it.

Absolutely delicious and healthy! - 1/19/10

Used Eggbeaters/Provolone cheese. Saut�ed mushrooms/onions on one side of omelet pan; Eggbeaters on the other side. When egg was set, I put the cheese, tomatoes, and basil on top. Flipped the onions/mushrooms by closing the omelet pan. I let it steam on low. Delicious but didn�t love Eggbeaters. - 6/9/10
