spinach egg bake
Okay, okay, I’ll share something healthy. I had a little banter with my friend Cara today about how we tout eating sweets and treats while everyone is tweeting their work-outs, but truthfully, I like to help! I eat healthy most of the time, and this recipe utilizes a few of my favorite substitutes and tricks to make something filling, calorie and fat-friendly, and most importantly – delicious!
You could call this a crustless quiche or frittata or whatever you like, but since the ratio of veggies to eggs is so tilted, I just call it a spinach egg bake. I love throwing dishes like this together using whatever you have in the fridge, and although I make this version for one, you can easily multiply it and bake it in a bigger dish to feed you plus a few others. Just go with the “omelet” method – cook all the filling ingredients before tossing them into the eggs, but top the entire thing with cheese instead of stirring it in.
And for those counting calories – you get the entire bake here for about 375 calories (not kidding!) which I’ve broken down in the recipe below. So enjoy (guilt-free) and celebrate the new you en route!
Eating for one can still be a lovely setting.
