Egg White Frittata
A lot of the recipes I come up with now are thrown together from the leftover vegetables I have in the fridge. Kinda like this one. I wanted to make a fritta for dinner, as it was something quick, easy, and delicious to make. I had spinach, half of an avocado, and peppers leftover in the fridge, and viola! Dinner. Now, currently my calorie count is really low, so I used all egg whites. You could subsitute 1 c of the egg beaters for 2 eggs if you wished (the calorie count would change however).
Serves 4

1/4 c. diced onion

In a large ovenproof skillet, add 1 tbsp butter over medium high heat and melt. Add onion, and saute 2-3 minutes until tender. Add pepper, and continue to saute 2-3 more minutes. Add spinach, and saute until just wilted, pour in egg substitute. Gently fold in avocado and cheese, and lower heat to medium low. Let set until eggs set (2-3 minutes) and transfer to oven. Cook 10-15 minutes, until eggs in the center are done and an inserted knife comes out clean.
