Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg white and water. Set aside.

  • Wipe out the skillet, set it over medium-high heat and coat it with cooking spray.

  • Fold over the omelet, cut in half and place one piece of the omelet on each bottom half of the toasted English muffin.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of salsa on each sandwich and top with the other half of the English muffin. Serve.
