Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 slices turkey bacon
2 teaspoons margarine spread (like Smart Balance)
1/2 cup sliced onion
1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper
1/2 cup sliced zucchini
2 plum tomatoes, diced
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 pinch ground black pepper
1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
1/2 cup 1% low fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 ounce lowfat mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Cook turkey bacon per directions on package until crisp. Set aside. Crumble when cool.
  • Coat an ovenproof 10" skillet with cooking spray. Melt the spread in the skillet. Add the onion, bell pepper, and zucchini, and saute over medium-low heat until the vegetables are tender, 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes, basil, and black pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook until the flavors are blended, 2 - 3 minutes, and remove from the heat.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • In a blender, combine the egg substitute, cottage cheese, and milk and process until smooth.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and return to the heat source. Sprinkle the crumbled turkey bacon over the top. Cover and cook on medium-low heat until the bottom is set and the top is still slightly wet.
  • Transfer the skillet to the broiler and broil until the top is set - 2-3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese and broil until the cheese melts.
  • Serve while hot.

This frittata was a great way to start my day. It was packed with protein and flavor. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again.

This frittata was a great way to use up some leftover vegetables. I added some chopped spinach, mushrooms, and zucchini, and it turned out delicious. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the eggs were cooked perfectly.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my frittata didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The eggs were a little overcooked, and the cheese wasn't melted all the way through. I think I'll try making it again with a lower oven temperature.

This frittata was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more cheese or vegetables. The eggs were cooked perfectly, though.
