Recipe Details:
This diabetic-friendly Italian omelet that is first fried in a pan and then cooked in the oven will give you and your family a bright start of the day!


Ingredients:
  • Eggs – 8
  • Parmesan cheese (coarsely grated) – 2 tbsp.
  • Spinach – ½ cup
  • Bell pepper (cut into strips) – 1
  • Garlic (chopped) – 1 clove
  • Shallots (chopped) – 1
  • Fresh basil – 2 tbsp.
  • Fat-free milk – 3 tbsp.
  • Olive oil – 2 tsp.
  • Salt and ground black pepper – to taste
    Recipe Directions:
    Step 1
    Break the eggs into a large bowl, add milk, cheese, basil, salt and pepper. Stir with a fork or a whisk.
    Step 2
    Heat olive oil in an oven safe skillet. Fry the bell pepper and onion over medium heat until soft (about 5 minutes), stirring occasionally.
    Step 3
    Add the garlic and fry for 30 seconds.
    Step 4
    Add spinach, fry for 30 more seconds, while stirring.

    Preheat oven to 360 F. Place the skillet in the oven and bake an omelet with cheese and vegetables for about 9 minutes. The omelet should increase in volume.
    Step 7
    Remove the frittata from the skillet and put it on a plate. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then serve and enjoy!
