Broccoli Frittata
2 cups
fat-free egg substitute
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
1 tsp crushed garlic
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped
broccoli, thawed and drained
1 cup shredded reduced-fat mozzarella
cheese
1. Combine the egg substitute and Parmesan cheese
in a medium-sized bowl.
Stir to mix well and
set aside.
2. Coat a 10” nonstick, ovenproof skillet
with cooking spray and add the
mushrooms, garlic and
thyme. Place over medium heat, cover and cook for
about 2 minutes,
stirring several times, or until the mushrooms
are tender.
Add the broccoli, mix well and spread evenly over the
bottom of the skillet.
3. Reduce the heat to low and pour egg mixture
over the vegetables. Cover and
cook without stirring
for 10 minutes, or until the eggs have almost set.
Preheat the broiler.
4. Remove cover and wrap the skillet handle in
aluminum foil (to protect it from
the broiler). Place
under the broiler 6” from the heat for about 3 minutes, or
until
the eggs are set but not dry.
5. Sprinkle the mozzarella over the frittata and
broil an additional minute or
until the cheese has
melted. Cut into wedges and serve.
