    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 tablespoon reduced-calorie margarine
    1 can (4 ounces) diced mild green chilies, drained
    1 fresh tomato, diced
    4 eggs
    2 egg whites
    1/3 cup low fat milk
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/4 teaspoon Sweet'N Low granulated sugar substitute
    2 ounces reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
    Chopped green onion and minced fresh parsley for garnish


    Recipe



    1. In shallow 8- or 9-inch round microwave dish, cook onions and margarine, covered, on high power 2 minutes. Stir in chilies and tomato; cook, uncovered, 1 minute.

    2. In medium size bowl, beat together eggs, egg whites, milk, garlic powder and Sweet'N Low; pour over vegetables. Continue cooking, uncovered, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently to move mixture from outside of dish toward center.

    3. Just before eggs are firm, sprinkle with cheese. Do not overcook, as mixture will continue to cook after being removed from microwave.

    4. Sprinkle with green onion and parsley. Serve immediately.
