Ingredients
6 egg whites1 cup ricotta 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped parsley and/or cilantro1 small clove garlic, minced1/4 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon pepper1 tablespoon olive oil
1. Preheat your broiler (or preheat oven to 500°). Beat together the egg whites, ricotta, chopped herb, garlic, salt, and pepper.
2. Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium flame. When hot, pour in the egg mixture and turn the heat to low. Cook until set around the edges, about 12 minutes. I rotate the skillet a quarter turn every few minutes. When the eggs are set around the edges, put the skillet in the oven and cook until the center is set; this could take only a minute or 2 with the broiler or quite a bit longer without broiler, perhaps 5 minutes.
