Buon Giorno Frittata

• From: California Olive Board

Ingredients

• 4 eggs, beaten

• 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

• 2 cups halved and sliced zucchini

• 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

• 1/4 cup grated fontina cheese

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

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. Mix in 1 cup of olives and red bell peppers, remove from heat and stir into egg mixture. Pour egg and vegetable mixture back into pan, turn heat to medium-high and allow to cook for 3-5 minutes until eggs are set on the bottom. Sprinkle the top of the frittata with grated cheese and remaining olives and place into a 400 degree oven for 13-15 minutes until cooked through.
