Ingredients
- 1/3 cup green onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil
- 2-1/2 cups whole wheat spaghetti, cooked
- 1/3 cup 1% low fat milk
- 4 large eggs
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 ounces mozzarella cheese
Preparation
- Chop green onion and basil; set aside.
- Coat a medium non-stick skillet with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Spread cooked spaghetti noodles evenly in skillet and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes.
- Whisk milk, eggs, egg whites and black pepper together in a bowl. Gently pour over pasta. Sprinkle the top of the frittata with cheese, green onions and basil. Cover and cook for approximately 8 minutes until set.
- Cut the frittata into 4 wedges and serve.
Helpful hints
- Top with 1/4 cup delicious Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Sauce from the DaVita.com recipe collection.
- Substitute refined spaghetti for whole wheat if preferred.
- Note to dietitians: This is a great recipe idea to serve at food sampling events. Double the recipe and cook in an electric skillet. Pre-cook/prep the pasta and sauce. Place a basil plant on the table for aroma and to demonstrate use of fresh herbs.
