EGG WHITE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND HOMEMADE FIG JAM SANDWICH WITH SALAD AND MAPLE BALSAMIC DRESSING
I eat this sandwich a coupla times a week - it's so good that you wouldn't even know it's diet food. See, caramelized onions are king when you're dieting: they're super low in fat, super cheap, and make anything taste great (...well, anything that tastes great with caramelized onions).

Steps:
- For the caramelized onions: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and onions, separating them, and sprinkle with the salt. Saute for 10 minutes, then turn down the heat to medium-low and cook until the onions are deep amber in color, another 35 to 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for the fig jam: Combine 1/4 cup water, the figs, sugar and lemon zest in a saucepan and simmer over low heat until thick, 45 to 60 minutes. For the eggs: Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil and use a paper towel to grease the pan and remove the excess oil. Crack 2 egg whites into a bowl and beat with a whisk. Pour the whites into the skillet and add 1/4 teaspoon piment d'espelette and some black pepper. Cook until opaque, 1 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining eggs to make 3 more omelets.
- For the salad: Combine the olive oil, vinegar and maple syrup in a small jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal the jar and shake vigorously to blend. Toss the arugula and blueberries with the dressing. Toast the bread. Spread 1 tablespoon jam on each of 4 slices of toast and add 1 tablespoon caramelized onions. Top with the egg whites and cover with the remaining slices of toast. Serve with the salad.

amirabbas-gondal39@hotmail.comThe caramelized onions and fig jam were delicious, but the egg white was a bit bland. I think I would have preferred a fried or scrambled egg instead.

i_gawdd@hotmail.co.ukThis sandwich was just okay. The flavors were a bit too sweet for my taste and the egg white was a little dry. I think I would have preferred a different type of bread, maybe something more savory.
