Red Pepper Frittata

Red Pepper Frittata

Ingredients:

2 tsp olive oil, divided

1/2 cup chopped celery

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1 Tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese

1 Tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

1/2 cup chopped sweet red peppers

1/2 cup chopped onions

8 egg whites

1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Cooking Directions:

In a large ovenproof frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 tsp oil. Add the red peppers, celery, onions, and garlic; cook, stirring frequently for 4 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat and set aside. In a large bowl lightly whisk together the egg whites, parsley, oregano, and black pepper. Stir in the vegetable mixture. In the same frying pan over medium heat warm the remaining 1 tsp oil.

Add the egg mixture and cook until brown around the edges. Cover the pan and reduce heat to low. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the eggs are set. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Sprinkle the frittata with the Parmesan. Place the pan about 5" from the heat and broil for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve cut into wedges.
