    List of Ingredients




    Low Carb Veggie Frittata


    2 cups egg substitute, or 8 eggs
    1/4 cup reduced-fat (2%) milk
    Salt (to taste)
    Pepper (to taste)
    3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese
    1 cup cooked trimmed asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
    1 cup frozen, drained peas
    Olive oil-flavored cooking spray
    2 Tbsp reduced-fat margarine, or butter

    Recipe




    1. In a large bowl, whisk egg substitute, milk, salt, and
    pepper until blended. Stir in cheese, asparagus, and peas.

    2. Preheat broiler.

    3. Coat nonstick frying pan with olive oil-flavored cooking
    spray. Melt margarine in the pan.

    4. In medium heat, carefully pour in egg mixture. Lift edges
    as egg firms and allow uncooked egg to flow under until
    the bottom is golden brown and the center is still little
    runny, about 3 to 4 minutes.

    5. Shake frying pan occasionally, making sure frittata
    isn't sticking to bottom.

    6. Place pan under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes, until top
    of frittata is light golden brown.

    7. Invert onto a serving dish or serve from the pan. Cut
    into wedges. This frittata is great by itself or with
    some fruit on a Sunday morning.
