How to make it

Sauté zucchini and red bell pepper in olive oil until softened. Whisk egg whites with black pepper, pour over vegetables, cook on low until set, then fold in parsley. Toast the bread and serve alongside or atop the scramble.

Tips for success

Use a nonstick skillet, keep heat gentle to avoid overcooking egg whites, and keep portions kidney-friendly by sticking to the listed amounts. You can swap chopped parsley with chives for a milder herb note.

Ingredients

  • 3 each egg whites
  • 1/4 cup diced zucchini
  • 2 tbsp diced red bell pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 slice low-sodium white bread (toasted)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add diced zucchini and red bell pepper; sauté until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. While vegetables cook, whisk egg whites with black pepper until slightly frothy.
  4. Pour egg whites over vegetables, reduce heat to low, and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until set.
  5. Fold in chopped parsley just before removing from heat.
  6. Toast the bread and serve alongside or topped with the egg white mixture.
