Total Time: 15 min

2 eggs
4 egg whites
3 oz Canadian-style bacon, chopped
3 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp scallion (green onions), sliced (optional)
1/8 tsp salt
Cooking spray
2 large pita, 100% whole-wheat, halved cross-wise
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, reduced-fat (optional)

1. In a medium bowl, combine eggs, egg whites, Canadian bacon, the
water, green onion (if desired), and salt. Beat with a wire whisk
or rotary beater until well mixed.

2. Lightly coat an unheated large nonstick skillet with nonstick
cooking spray. Preheat over medium heat. Add egg mixture to skillet.
Cook, without stirring, until mixture begins to set on the bottom and
around edge. Using a spatula or a large spoon, lift and fold the
partially cooked eggs so the uncooked portion flows underneath.
Continue cooking about 2 minutes or until egg mixture is cooked
through but is still glossy and moist. Remove from heat immediately.

3. Fill pita halves with egg mixture. If desired, sprinkle with cheese.
