Fat Smash Frittata

I finally got a chance to try the Fat Smash Frittata that I've been promising to blog about for a couple of weeks. It showed up as a breakfast dish last Sunday when I searched for egg dishes, even though I'd only seen it as a dinner option before.

I had hoped to pick it last week, not realizing that it wasn't a Extreme Fat Smash Diet Cycle 1 recipe. (For information on Extreme Fat Smash diet cycles, click here.) This got me into a panic. What was I going to do with all that organic spinach I bought?

Luckily, the spinach was still good, as was the frittata. Next time I'll make it with a spicier cheese, or maybe add a little hot sauce to the egg mixture. I'd also like to try it with another veggie, like roasted peppers or brocolli.

Fat Smash Frittata
Preparation time: 20 mins
Makes 1 serving

Ingredients:

• 3 egg whites
• 2 Tbsp. 1% Milk
• 2 pieces Yves Veggie Cuisine The Good Slice Soy Jalapeno Jack Cheese Substitute (I didn't have this, so I used two slices of reduced fat Swiss instead. Next time, I'll try to find a low fat cheese that has more flavor. The Swiss added a wondeful gooey texture, but no taste.)
• 1 cup boiled spinach (I used fresh baby organic spinach and steamed it in the microwave using a GLAD SimplyCooking microwave steaming bag.)
• 2 Tbsp chopped yellow onion (I used a red onion just for color's sake.)
• 1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
2. Beat egg whites together with milk and seasonings of choice. (I used a dash of salt and pepper.) Set aside.
3. In an ovenproof saute pan, saute onion in olive oil until translucent.
4. Add spinach and toss until hot.
5. Spread onion and spinach mixture evenly over bottom of pan.
6. Tear pieces of cheese and lay on top of spinach.
7. Pour egg mixture over top, and cook on stovetop, uncovered, over medium-low heat until egg mixture is about 1/2 set.
8. Transfer to oven and bake about 10-15 minutes, until puffy and eggs are cooked through.
