ARTICHOKE SPINACH FRITTATA
This is a very good lowfat version of a crustless quiche that I adapted from several recipes. Fat can be further reduced by using canned artichoke hearts in water.

- Notes.
- You'll need an all-metal pan to take this dish from the stove to the oven in the true frittata style. (Alternatively, the portions could be baked in individual ramekins, just mix all the the ingredients into the eggs, then pour into the ramekins and bake). Made with egg substitute, this is a more healthful and low fat brunch item, great accompanied by fresh fruit and mimosas made with prosecco.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender artichokes. Look for artichokes with tightly closed leaves and no signs of bruising or wilting.
- Trim the artichokes properly. Cut off the stem and the bottom of the artichoke, then remove the tough outer leaves.
- Soak the artichokes in acidulated water. This will help to prevent the artichokes from browning.
- Cook the artichokes until they are tender. You can boil, steam, or roast the artichokes.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your frittata. Spinach, mushrooms, and bell peppers are all great options.
- Don't overcook the eggs. The frittata should be cooked through, but the eggs should still be slightly runny.
- Serve the frittata immediately. Frittata is best when served hot or warm.
Conclusion:
Artichoke spinach frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this frittata is sure to become a favorite in your household.
