Spinach and Goat Cheese Egg White Frittata

Happy Monday, friends! I’m comin’ atcha today with a super tasty, healthy and protein-packed breakfast recipe!

So as you know, I’ve been trying to get my health and fitness back on this year (just like pretty much everyone else in 2018!). I started taking all kinds of different classes and revamping my routine to keep things fun and interesting, and I’ve gotten a bit more on track in terms of my eats. I always preach about preparation and how stocking your fridge with tons of healthy ingredients can make all the difference in the world when it comes to sticking to your goals. And hough this recipe is quite possibly the easiest thing in the world to make, it does require you to add just a few items to your grocery list?

I’ve always been a fan of eggs because they’re incredibly nutritious, inexpensive, and easy to make. They keep me full throughout a workout without that bloating feeling that comes when I have yogurt or smoothies sometimes. But while I love a good yolk, they are slightly higher in cholesterol, whereas the whites are a low-calorie, low-cholesterol source of protein. I also grew up in a household where my parents ate only egg-whites, mostly because they didn’t like the taste of the yolk, but I can tell you that cracking a ton of eggs just to get enough whites for a substantial omelette was neither the quickest nor most enjoyable task. The perfect solution to this is to just buy the egg whites in a container so that they’re ready to go when you need them!

I was recently introduced to AllWhites^® 100% liquid egg whites, which are incredibly convenient to keep on hand. They’re fat-free, cholesterol-free, low in calories and carbs, and high in lean protein. You can find them by the eggs in your grocery store and like I said, they maaaajorly take the effort out of getting the egg whites out of a cracked egg (and avoid having to waste the yolk, too!). The frittata I’ve been making on repeat with AllWhites has fueled me throughout barre workouts, cardio workouts, and more importantly, a morning at work because the struggle. is. REAL.

This frittata recipe combines AllWhites liquid egg whites with just a touch of low fat milk, nutrient-rich spinach, flavorful onion and creamy goat cheese for a super delicious dish that tastes decadent but contains soooo many good-for-you ingredients! The prep is minimal, just a touch of dicing and whisking, and then the skillet/oven really do the rest of the work for you. If you don’t have a skillet, just use an oven safe pan, but I will say that the skillet helps cook the eggs evenly. This dish perfectly serves two, but if you’re eating for one, just wrap the leftovers up in seran wrap or a tupperware, and save it for the next day. Doesn’t get more convenient than that, my friends!

Spinach and Goat Cheese Egg White Frittata

1 1/4 cup AllWhites^® egg whites

2 tbsp low fat milk

1 tbsp butter

1/2 cup diced onion

2 handfuls spinach

3 tbsp goat chees

sea salt

pepper

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit and whisk egg whites and milk in a bowl until light & frothy.

2. Melt butter in the skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, a pinch or two of salt, and cook thoroughly. Add the spinach too, and cook for another 2 minutes or until wilted.

3. Add the egg mixture over the top of the onions and spinach. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Take a spatula and make sure the eggs flow to the bottom of the pan as opposed to on the sides of the pan.

4. Once the frittata is half set (and the egg whites on the sides are turning to a more solid colored white), top with pieces of goat cheese and transfer to the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden.

So there ya have it! If you’d like to learn more about AllWhites, head here! They’ve also been generous enough to give me 3 product coupons to send to one of my readers, so for a chance to win, comment down below and tell me what activity you use protein to fuel!
