Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together egg whites and 1 tablespoon water; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- In a medium nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add spinach, and season with salt and pepper; cook until wilted and tender, 1 minute. Add egg whites; cook until nearly set, using a flexible heatproof spatula to pull sides of omelet toward center as uncooked egg whites run underneath, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Dollop cottage cheese on top of omelet, sprinkle with Parmesan, and season with salt and pepper. Gently slide omelet onto a serving plate, folding it over on itself by tipping skillet slightly.

Steps:
- Whisk 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon egg whites together in a bowl until frothy.
- Heat an omelet pan over high heat; spray with cooking spray. Pour in egg whites and swirl pan until eggs run to the edge. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook until edges are mostly solid, about 2 minutes. Tease edges from pan using a spatula. Let liquid egg whites run under the cooked edges. Use the spatula to keep the omelet sliding freely around the pan.
- Place ham and spinach onto the omelet and sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese on top. Sprinkle red pepper flakes, tarragon, oregano, and sage over the cheese. Cook until egg whites are set on the surface and the omelet slides freely in the pan, about 3 minutes more.
- Tilt the pan over a plate and fold the omelet in half as it slides onto the plate.
