A protein-and-veggie-packed omelette alternative Eggs get the fancy treatment with this frittata, adapted from Mollie Katzen's Sunlight Café (Hyperion), the latest by the Moosewood Cookbook author. The dish easily feeds a crowd, and because it uses egg whites in place of some yolks, fat content stays within a healthy range. Self added lean turkey bacon for flavor, but it's worth a gobble with or without the meat.
Ingredients:
5 slices turkey bacon
2 cups thinly sliced red potato
2 cups sliced red onion
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
2 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cups chopped spinach
2 tsp minced garlic
4 whole eggs
8 egg whites
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 oz reduced-fat feta, crumbled
Directions:
1. Cook bacon until crisp. Let cool. Chop and set aside. In a 10-inch skillet, sauté potato, onion, bell pepper, rosemary, and 1/2 tsp salt in 1 tbsp oil 5 minutes over medium heat. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Stir in spinach and garlic and sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat. Beat eggs and remaining salt in a large bowl. Add vegetables, bacon, black pepper, and feta. Preheat broiler. Place cleaned 10 skillet on a burner over medium heat and add remaining oil. Pour in egg mixture and cook 4 minutes. Move skillet to broiler and broil, uncovered, 3 minutes.
