Giz of The Equal Opportunity Kitchen picked our theme "Clean Eating"
That is a great way to start with those new year resolutions.
I looked for my Cooking Light Recipe ~ and decided to go with some fresh brown eggs and fresh spinach. I make frittatas almost every weekend . . . and this is my basic recipe. I will change the veggies and either omit or add a cheese ~ that's the way I work.
Spinach Onion Swiss Frittata
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 cups vertically sliced onion
4 cups baby spinach leaves
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup shredded swiss cheese
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Heat a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add oil; swirl to coat. Add onion; sauté 10 minutes or until tender. Add spinach; cook 2 minutes, stirring just until spinach wilts.
3. Combine eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture over vegetables in pan; cook until edges begin to set, about 2 minutes. Gently lift edge of egg mixture, tilting pan to allow uncooked egg mixture to come in contact with pan. Cook 2 minutes or until egg mixture is almost set. Sprinkle with cheese.

This sounds great and gives me a good idea for dinner. Also, virtual calories are the best!
Happy New Year!

Chin chin! What a great meal! Love this frittata.
Oh Sandi, I adore frittatas! This sounds scrumptious! Thank you for your kind comment and I am so glad to be back with everyone! I needed this jump start of 'clean' for the New Year!
I wish you the happiest of New Years!

Yum! Frittatas are such an easy way of incorporating vegetables into light and tasty fare. They're such a versatile dish! I'd be putting in the cheese though! Haha!
Looks awesome!!
Frittatas are so wonderful for the weekend - they allow you to use up whatever vegetables are laying about needing to be used. This one looks great. Now I am craving weekend food!
