This classic soufflé recipe is flavored with fresh orange juice and orange rind and only has 1.1 grams of fat per serving. When you make a soufflé, the key to success is beating the egg whites to their full volume but not overbeating them.

Preheat oven to 375°.
Coat a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Set aside.
Place flour in a small saucepan. Gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Add 1/4 cup sugar and rind; stir well. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook 1 minute or until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in juice; set aside.
Beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt at high speed of a mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Gently fold one-fourth egg white mixture into orange mixture; gently fold in remaining egg white mixture. Spoon into prepared soufflé dish.
