Spinach and Onion Fritata

This was an awesome dinner. It comes in about 250 calories a serving with 16.5 grams of protein.

 

Ingrediant:

 

1 large potatoe sliced thinly (you many not use all of it)

1 large onion diced

2 teaspoons of garlic minced

1 box of frozen defrosted and drained chopped spinach

4 eggs

1 cup of skim milk

1/4 cup of sh. cheese

salt and pepper to taste

3 table spoons olive oil

 

Heat oven to 350 - place a cookie sheet inside

 

Slice potatoes evenly and thinly - coat with 1 TBS of olive oil - dash of salt and pepper

Remove cookie sheet from oven and place a layer of potatoes on the sheet- bake for about 10-12 min (you want the potato just tender)

 

In a skillet add 2 TBS of olive oil- diced onion, minced garlic. Cook until onion is almost done, then add drained spinach and mix well.

 

In a bowl mix 4 eggs, 1 cup milk, cheese- add salt and pepper to taste.

 

When potatoes are just tender remove from oven and place in the bottom of a Pam sprayed casserole bowl (I used a large corningware round bowl). Just cover the bottom with potatoe for the crust. Pour egg and spinach mixture over top.

 

Bake for 30 min or until center is set.

 

This was so good. It make 4 portions so I have left over for my lunch today or I could have had it for breakfast.

 

You can also play with the recipe adding different seasoning to the potatoes or add salsa, mushrooms, peppers- almost anything to the mix.

 

Bottom line it was good, filling, and low cal.
