Happy Wednesday – Apparently, we are expecting a 3 day snow storm?? I guess that’s the kind of news you miss when you don’t have a Facebook (I deleted mine for Lent). I just hope it doesn’t continue into next week… We have a plane to catch to the sunshine state!
Since today is Wednesday, it means another WIAW post — Head over to Jenn’s page to see the other participating bloggers!

So as you know I’ve been obsessed with Holly’s Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Baked Oatmeal for the past two weeks, but since Florida is next week I decided to be “carb conscious” this week! I made this egg white frittata on Sunday night and cut it into 5 slices to eat during the week. It turned out delicious and keeps me full for 4-5 hours. The stats are pretty awesome as well – 163 calories, 3g fat, 11 carbs and 24 g of protein!
Asparagus, Zucchini & Feta Egg White Frittata
Ingredients
- 1 large zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 lb of asparagus, ends trimmed and cut into 1.5 inch pieces
- 1 bag of baby spinach
- 1/2 medium onion, chopped
- 1.5 small cartons of 100% egg whites (you can use beaters or real eggs – the calorie count will just change)
- 5 oz of Fat Free Feta
- Pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp of Olive Oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In an oven safe skillet, heat olive oil
- Add asparagus, spinach, zucchini, onion, garlic & pepper to skillet. Cook on medium heat for 5-7 minutes until asparagus & zucchini is tender and spinach has wilted
- Pour egg whites over the veggies and mix in feta. Cook an addition 5-7 minutes on medium-low heat until eggs are mostly set.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes until frittata is firm. Broil for the last 1-2 minutes to brown top.
Every morning I just stick my slice in the microwave for about 2 minutes and it’s good to go! Healthy, filling and packed with green veggies
that frittata looks simply mouthwatering
that frittate looks so good! I need to make breakfasts that I can take to a work conference all next week and this will most likely be making the cut
we had the snow here yesterday… I heard it was supposed to get worse as it moves East. Good Luck!
