Preparation

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, water and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and salt until thick and lemon-colored, about 5 minutes. Fold in the whites. Melt butter in a 10-in. nonstick ovenproof skillet coated with cooking spray. Add egg mixture. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until puffed and lightly browned on the bottom. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until a knife inserted 2 in. from edge comes out clean. Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute the tomato, zucchini, onion, green pepper and Italian seasoning until tender. Carefully run a knife around edge of omelet. Place vegetables on one side and sprinkle with cheese; fold other side over filling. Slide onto a serving plate; cut in half.
