2 large zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch chunks

4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup onions or 4 scallions, chopped
6 egg whites
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Spray a non-stick skillet with fat-free, calorie free non-stick cooking spray.
  • Sauté onion and garlic for 3 minutes. Add zucchini and sauté for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue to sauté all of the veggies until soft.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs, salt, pepper, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder until the eggs become slightly puffy.
  • Drain vegetables and add to egg mixture.
  • Fold veggies into egg whites and pour back into the skillet. Cook on medium for 8 minutes.
