This was okay. I only used half of one red onion and that was plenty. Will definitely add shredded cheese to the leftovers tomorrow.

What a great breakfast this made. I used all egg white and found that I was out of peas. Made it with red and yellow peppers (which all went to the bottom, sigh) and added chives along with the onion. Fat free cheese and a sliced mushroom went on top. Dee-licious!
