ingredients
- 5 whole eggs
- 7 egg whites
- 2.46 ml salt, divided
- fresh ground black pepper
- 236.59 ml shredded fat free mozzarella cheese
- 236.59 ml chopped onion
- 354.88 ml sliced mushrooms (about 6 oz)
- 236.59 ml zucchini, diced
- 177.44 ml chopped bottled roasted red pepper, drained
- 4.92 ml dried thyme
- 44.37 ml grated parmesan cheese
directions
- In a medium bowl combine the eggs, egg whites, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grindings of black pepper and stir in the mozzarella.
- Lightly coat a large oven-safe nonstick skillet with cooking spray and warm over medium heat.
- Add the onions and mushrooms and cook, stirring, 5 minutes.
- Add the zucchini, red peppers, thyme, 1/4 teaspoons salt and pinch black pepper. Cook the mixture, stirring, 4 minutes.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook over medium-high heat for 7 minutes. As the eggs begin to set, run a spatula around the edges and tilt the skillet to allow any uncooked egg to run under the cooked portions.
- Do not stir. When the eggs are almost set, cover, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the eggs are set.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Sprinkle Parmesan on top of the eggs. Broil the frittata for 4 minutes or until the Parmesan is lightly browned.
- Cut the frittata into 6 wedges and serve.
