INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Egg Whites (~182g)
1/3 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (~75g)
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1 tablespoon Olive Oil (13.5g)
1/4 cup Red Onion (40g)
1/4 portion Avocado (50g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini into thin rounds or half-moons. Dice the red onion finely.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sauté the red onion until soft and slightly translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add the zucchini slices to the skillet and cook until they start to crisp along the edges, around 4-5 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg whites and low-fat cottage cheese until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Pour the egg white mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Allow the mixture to settle and cook undisturbed for about 3 minutes over medium heat.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the edges begin to turn golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before slicing.
Garnish with diced avocado and optionally a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired. Serve warm.
