Yummy Quick and Healthy Baked Vegetable Frittata n_n
HEALTH BENEFITS and FUN FACTS
There is much debate about whether or not eggs are heart healthy. One egg has a whopping 210mg of cholesterol, which is almost your full recommended daily value of 300mg. If you have high cholesterol, Egg Beaters or egg white might be better for you as the whites contain significantly less sodium, fat and cholesterol while maintaining a large amount of protein. Egg yolks do contain vitamin D, folate, and calcium, though, so your egg consumption should depend on your preferences and health needs. If you prefer the taste of real eggs but are trying to cut cholesterol, try this recipe with 4 complete eggs and an additional 6 egg whites
Ingredients
1/2 teaspoon celtic salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 bunch of cilantro, chopped finely by hand
1 tablespoon cold pressed extra virgin olive oil
1 small red or green pepper (seeds removed)
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 cups of chopped mushrooms
4 scallions/green onions, sliced
8 organic, free-range eggs OR equivocal amount Egg Beaters n_n
