1 1/2 cups leftover cooked long-grain rice
1 (8 ounce) container low fat cottage cheese (1%)
1/3 cup skim milk
1/4 cup romano cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F In nonstick 10-inch skillet with oven-safe handle for baking in oven later, heat oil over medium heat until hot.
2. Add onion and cook, covered, until tender and golden, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Meanwhile, in large bowl, with fork, stir egg whites, whole eggs, spinach, rich, cottage cheese, milk, Romano, salt and pepper until blended.
4. Stir egg mixture into onion in skillet and place in oven.
