Ingredients

  • 6 egg whites

  • 3 eggs

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ¼ cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese or regular feta cheese

  • 2 cups small broccoli florets

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1 ¼ cups cherry tomatoes, quartered

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg whites, eggs, salt, and pepper. Stir in cheese; set aside.

  2. In a large broiler-proof skillet, cook broccoli and shallots in hot oil over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or just until tender, stirring occasionally. Pour egg mixture over the broccoli mixture in skillet. Cook over medium-low heat. As mixture sets, run a spatula around the edge of the skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking and lifting edges until egg mixture is almost set (surface will be moist). Arrange tomatoes on top of egg mixture.

  3. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat about 5 minutes or until center is set. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Cut into four wedges.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
