Spinach & Onion Frittata

    Cost: $4 for 8 servings                
    ....and only 97 calories per serving

This dish packs a flavorful punch without the high cost or
high calorie count that many frittata type dishes do.

Replace the 6 large eggs with 3 whole eggs and 3 egg
whites to drop the calorie amount per serving even more.

My nutrition clients help me too with great recipes they
come up with, as this recipe came from my fabulous client,
Sherri Bearman. Thanks to her, we can all enjoy this yummy
dish… Thanks Sherri! It is frittata time folks... ENJOY.


Ingredients:
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
4 cups roughly chopped Spinach
6 whole eggs (or 3 whole eggs and 3 egg whites)
1/4 teaspoon Salt
Pinch of freshly ground Black Pepper
1 tablespoon chopped Parsley


1. Heat 9-inch ovenproof skillet over high heat.
Add olive oil and turn pan to coat.

2. Lower heat to medium and add onion. Stir occasionally and cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, or until onion is soft and golden brown.

3. Add spinach and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until spinach has wilted.

4. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs. Stir in salt, pepper, and parsley. Pour egg mixture
into skillet on top of the onions and spinach.

5. Cover skillet loosely and cook until the egg is mostly set, about 8 minutes.

6. Place skillet under broiler and continue cooking until egg has completely set
and is slightly browned on top. Remove from oven and allow it to cool slightly
before serving.
