EGG WHITE OMELETTE WITH ASPARAGUS

200g asparagus, chopped
4 bacon rashers
2 green onions, sliced
3/4 cup grated reduced-fat cheddar cheese
8 egg whites
300g unsliced mixed-grain bread

Boil, steam or microwave asparagus until tender; drain, rinse under cold water, drain well.

Remove rind and fat from bacon, chop bacon. Heat a dry, nonstick pan, add bacon and onions, cook, stirring, until bacon is browned. Combine asparagus with bacon mixture and cheese in bowl; cover to keep warm.

Beat egg whites in large bowl with electric mixer until soft peaks form. Spread a quarter of egg whites into a heated, nonstick pan, cook until lightly browned underneath. Place pan under grill until top of omelette is just set. Spoon a quarter of the asparagus mixture over one half of omelette; fold in half; slide onto serving plate. Repeat with remaining egg whites and asparagus mixture to make 4 omelettes. Meanwhile, cut bread into 4 slices; toast bread. Serve omelettes immediately with toast slices.

NOTE: The omelette pan should be unscratched or should be sprayed lightly with cooking oil spray.

Serves 4.
