Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups water
¾ cup quinoa, rinsed and drained
2 eggs
2 egg whites
1 cup shredded zucchini
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
½ cup diced ham
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 6 muffin cups.
  • Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Combine cooked quinoa, eggs, egg whites, zucchini, Swiss cheese, ham, parsley, Parmesan cheese, and white pepper in a large bowl and mix until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture to the top of each prepared muffin cup.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the edges of frittatas are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool at least 5 minutes in the pan before serving. Serve hot or cold.
