Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Low sodium cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup Low sodium cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup Fresh spinach, chopped
- 3 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until yolks and whites are completely mixed and slightly frothy.
Add the low sodium cottage cheese and shredded low sodium cheddar cheese to the eggs, and stir to combine evenly.
Mix in the black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Set aside.
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften.
Add the chopped spinach and green onions to the skillet, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the vegetables in the skillet, spreading it evenly.
Let the frittata cook undisturbed on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is completely set and fluffy.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into wedges.
Serve warm, and enjoy your low sodium cheese frittata.
