  1. In a medium bowl, crack the large eggs and add the egg white, water, kosher salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until well combined.
  2. Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and pour in the olive oil. Heat for about 1 minute until it shimmers.
  3. Add the finely chopped onions to the hot skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until tender and golden.
  4. Incorporate the thinly sliced mushrooms into the skillet and stir for another 3-4 minutes until tender and browned.

  7. If desired, add cheese just before the eggs finish cooking and fold gently until melted.
