I've had scrambled eggs with spinach and mushrooms the past two mornings (delicious!) I've been making them with the egg whites in a box, do it is low cal too:) does anyone have some more ideas for scrambled eggs or omelets that are low cal and filling? Thanks!

    I like to had tomatoes and onions in my omelets sometimes. Also, sometimes I put hot sauce on them to give it an extra kick without the extra calories.

    salsa is always good on eggs and only 10 cals for 2 tablespoons :-)

    I really like reduced fat mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes, onions and zucchini chopped into little pieces... I then add salsa to the top. YUM - A - RIFIC!

    spinach & feta cheese is a delicious combo :)

    I also like tomatoes with my eggs, freshens it up some...

    and of course, I love my jalapeno, cheddar & salsa omelets (I LOVE jalapenos)

    I use egg whites often in the morning too and I like to take leftover veggies from the night before and add them to my eggs (roasted asparagus, steamed broccoli, etc. I usually do 4 egg whites (I separate the eggs because we get lots from a local farm), add some onion powder and pepper and then put those in the pan. Wait til it's almost cooked and flip it, then add chopped veggies and a little ham and a piece of cheese if I think I have the cals. Great protein punch in the morning.

    I put chopped up turkey rashers in my omelette the other day. It was really yummy and gave an extra protein hit too

    ^^^ This! Cook the eggs in sauteed minced onion. Just before you take the pan off the burner, add some minced tomato (patted dry with a paper towel). When you plate the eggs, add 1/2 avocado diced. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons salsa (you choose how hot).

    I sometimes have this for supper instead of breakfast. Very tasty stuff!

    OMG! I make this omelet that is soooood good!
    4 egg whites, a splash of skim milk,
    garlic and onion powder,
    dash of season pepper
    1 cup of baby spinach and cut grape tomatoes
    1 oz of fat free feta cheese

    ......seriously it is to die for. I eat that along with some fat free plain fage yogurt with blueberries and a little low fat granola. The whole meal is around 250 cals and I am usually way full until lunch! :] Enjoy!
