8 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil
  • 1/3 cup sliced green onions
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese (about 1/4 cup), cut into 12 pieces
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 (1.1-ounce) slices pumpernickel bread, toasted

Directions

  1. 1
    Place eggs and egg whites in a bowl; stir with a whisk until blended.
  2. 2
    Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add green onions to pan; saute 2 minutes or until tender. Add egg mixture to pan. Cook without stirring until mixture sets on bottom. Draw a spatula across bottom of pan to form curds. Add salmon and cream cheese. Continue drawing spatula across bottom of pan until egg mixture is slightly thick but still moist; do not stir constantly. Remove from pan immediately. Sprinkle egg mixture with pepper. Serve with pumpernickel toast.

    In my lighter version of this New York favorite, I simply substitute egg whites for some of the whole eggs and reduced-fat cream cheese for the full-fat variety.
