Spinach & Potato Frittata

Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
6 baby red potatoes, thinly sliced
1/2 cup (80g) finely chopped red onion
3 cups (85g) baby spinach leaves, torn
2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
4 large eggs
6 large egg whites
½ cup non-fat milk
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper, divided
⅓ cup (47g) crumbled goat cheese
4 slices whole wheat bread, toasted

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).

Add olive oil to the skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes and onion; cook covered, for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender. Add spinach and thyme; cook covered, for 2–3 minutes or until spinach wilts, using tongs to occasionally stir the spinach.

Whisk together eggs, egg whites, milk, salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and potato mixture and fold gently with a rubber spatula to combine. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes or until the edges begin to set, then transfer the skillet to the oven.

Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the frittata is completely cooked. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with goat cheese and the remaining 1/4 tsp pepper. Cut into 4 wedges and serve with a slice of whole wheat toast.
