Ingredients
4-Zucchini2-cups frozen spinach4-eggs1-cup egg whites1-cup plain Greek Yogurt2-cups Broccoli1/4-cup onion1.5-cups shredded Sharp Cheddar cheese
Pre-heat oven to 350
Using a zoodler, slice the zucchini and place into a strainer.
Sprinkle with salt and let sit for a while, tossing frequently, to allow the moisture to come out.
Squeeze as much moisture out of the spinach as possible, place in a strainer and set aside for now.
Finely dice the onion and set aside.
Chop the broccoli into bite sized pieces and set aside.
Break the four eggs into a large bowl and blend with a whisk. When blended, add the eggs whites and yogurt.
Blend until yogurt is incorporated.
Stir in the zucchini, drained spinach, broccoli, onion and 1-cup of cheese. Blend until everything is coated.
Spray the inside of an oven proof dish with cooking spray. I use a 10" cast-iron skillet but a similarly sized oven proof baking dish should work.
Pour everything, except the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese into the pan. *I* use my clean hands to evenly distribute the veggies.
Top with the remaining cheese and put into pre-heated oven and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until center is set.
After the center is set, turn the broiler on and brown the top. In my oven it takes about 4-minutes, but all ovens are different, so keep a sharp eye on your dish.
Remove from the oven and let set about 5-minutes before slicing and serving.
