1 small onion, thinly sliced
½ tsp. salt (optional)
1 lb. asparagus, tough ends snapped off, spears cut diagonally into 1-inch lengths
1 cup egg substitute, lightly beaten

RECIPE

  • Heat olive oil in a 10-inch oven proof frying pan over medium-high heat.

  • Sprinkle cheese over eggs and put under broiler until cheese is melted and lightly brown. This is about 3 to 4 minutes.
