Introduction

An attractive Christmas brunch item, because when you cook it, the greens stay on the bottom, and the red floats to the top, so you have red-white-green layers, basically.

Ingredients

2 large eggs

2 large egg whites

2 ounces feta cheese

1 jarred roasted red pepper, diced small

1 tsp. butter

1/2 cup frozen greens (collards, spinach, whatever) or use 1.5 cups fresh

dash of pepper (white pepper is good in this)

Tips

I think this would also be quite tasty without any yolks at all, and obviously, that would be lower in fat.

Directions

Beat the eggs and egg whites with a fork, then stir in cheese and pepper. In a small ovenproof frying pan on medium heat, cook the greens in butter until they're completely heated through and wilted. Pour the egg mixture over the greens and cook undisturbed for 5-10 minutes, until the edges are set. Place the pan under the broiler until the top is puffy and browned, then remove from oven, let stand a few minutes to firm up, cut, and serve.
