Is there anything better than a Spinach and Roasted Red Bell Pepper Frittata?<\/p>\n

Well, maybe – but still, it’s a fabulous dish that’s not only healthy, low-calorie, and inexpensive, but it serves as a grand main dish!\u00a0 And … Oh yes, it is delicious!!!<\/p>\n

Spinach and Roasted Red Bell Pepper Frittata!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong>
\n2 cups red bell pepper, seeds and chopped
\n3 tablespoons olive oil
\n1\/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper (a.k.a. Pimineta Roja Quebrada)
\n3 garlic cloves, crushed
\n4 cups fresh spinach
\n3 eggs
\n6 egg whites
\n1\/2 teaspoon dried oregano
\nsalt n’ pepper to taste<\/p>\n

Instructions:<\/strong>
\nHeat the oven to 400 degrees F.
\nPlace the red pepper in a large baking dish and drizzle 1 tablespoon of the oil on top.\u00a0 Season with salt and crushed red peppers , and then toss well.
\nRoast about 20 minutes until tender.\u00a0\u00a0 Voil\u00e0<\/em>, you’ve got<\/em> roasted peppers!<\/em><\/p>\n

Heat the remaining oil in a 9 inch skillet with heatproof handle.
\nToss garlic in hot oil,\u00a0saut\u00e9 for about 1 minute.
\nAdd the spinach, saut\u00e9 until wilted.
\nIf there’s any excess liquid, drain out of pan.
\nStir in red bell peppers.
\nBeats the eggs with the oregano and season with salt.
\nPour over vegetable mixture.
\nStir just a tad, allowing the eggs to spread through the vegetables.
\nOver medium heat, cook for about 10 minutes.
\nWith large spoon, gently pull the edge of the frittata away from the side of the skillet, allowing the uncooked egg to make its way underneath.
\nWhen the frittata is firm but still moist, put it under the broiler for 5 minutes, until golden.<\/p>\n

Serve hot or warm with a salad and maybe some fabulous whole grain bread.<\/p>\n

NOTE:\u00a0 If the handle on your skillet is not heatproof, wrap it with aluminum foil.\u00a0 Should do the trick!\u00a0 Needless to say, I learned the hard way – OUCH – which is why I am The Dysfunctional Chef.<\/p>\n

Spread the word \u2026 not the icing!<\/p>\n
