Olives give this "good day" frittata an extra savory bite.

Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites, beaten
  • 1/4 cup shredded fresh basil
  • 2 Tbs low fat milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp olive oil

  • 1 cup diced yellow onions
  • 1(6 ounce) can olives, drained and halved
  • 1/2 cup roasted red bell peppers, sliced into 1/4-inch strips

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium-sized mixing bowl whisk together eggs, egg whites, basil, milk, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a 10-inch oven proof sauté pan over medium. Add zucchini and onions and cook for 5-6 minutes until tender.
