More Italian Main Dishes...hmmm so good

Spinach Frittata

Total prep and bake time, approx. less than 30 minutes!

Preheat oven to 350 degress F. Heat olive or canola oil in heavy skillet, iron best. Add 1/2 cup thinly sliced onion of your choice, red is best, saut'e until the onion is tender and browned. About 5 minutes or so.

In a large bowl, combine 3 Tablespoon olive oil, 10 eggs which egg substitute can be used for half or half white and half with yolks, 1 cup of finely chopped raw spinach, (about 1/2 lb.) 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1 Tablespoon chopped parsley, 1 garlic clove, crushed, 3/4 teas. salt or salt substitute, and couple dash of pepper. With fork or wire shisk beat until well blended. Put into the skillet that has the onion. Cook over low heat about 3-4 minutes, lifting from bottom with spatula as the eggs set.

Bake uncovered for about 10-13 minutes or until the top is set. It will feel somewhat firm. With spatula, loosen from the bottom and around the edges, and slide onto a serving platter. Cut into wedges when slighly cool. Makes 4-6 servings.
