Type: Eggs, Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 1/2 cups 297g / 10ozEgg substitute equivalent to 6 eggs
1/4 cup 36g / 1.3ozGrated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSalt
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlFreshly-ground black pepper
  Nonstick cooking spray
2 teaspoons 10mlButter
1   Onion - minced

10 oz 284gChopped spinach leaves - fresh or prepackaged

Recipe Instructions

Beat egg substitute or eggs in bowl with wire whisk. Beat in cheese, salt and pepper. Set aside.

Lightly spray nonstick 10-inch skillet with cooking spray. Add butter and melt over low heat. Increase heat to medium and add onion and garlic. Saute until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chopped spinach to skillet, stirring until spinach is totally wilted. Saute spinach about 1 minute.

Pour beaten egg mixture over spinach. As edges of egg mixture begin to set, tilt pan and lift outer edges so uncooked egg can run under. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking until frittata is golden brown on bottom and almost set on top, 4 to 5 minutes.

Put large plate over top of skillet and carefully invert frittata. Slide frittata back into skillet, uncooked-side down. Cook until bottom is set, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to serving platter. Garnish with chopped tomato.

This recipe yields 3 to 4 servings.
