Food Stuff

This is going to be a quick and easy post, I recently made Kale chips and Feta and Vegetable Frittatas on the weekend and thought I would share them with you, they were quite tasty!
 
This is a weight watchers recipe only 2 pts per serving
 
Ingredients:
4 spray(s) cooking spray
6 Large Eggs
     4 Large egg white
½ cup of water
¼ tsp of salt
¼ tsp fresh ground pepper
2 cups of fresh spinach, baby leaves, coarsely chopped
1 cup of canned artichoke hearts without oil, cut into chunks
1 cup of crumbled feta cheese
½ cup of roasted red peppers (packed in water)
½ cup of uncooked scallions (sliced)
¼ cup of low fat cream cheese (room temperature)
 

 
 
 

 


Directions:

Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Coat two 8-hole muffin pans with cooking spray (or use one 12-hole pan and four holes from another muffin pan).

In a medium bowl, beat eggs, egg whites, water, salt and pepper until blended. Stir in spinach, artichoke hearts, feta, roasted peppers, scallions and cream cheese; mix well.

Spoon about 60 ml (¼ cup) egg mixture into each prepared muffin hole. Bake until just set, about 18 to 22 minutes. Cool in pans on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Loosen edges of frittatas with a rubber spatula, sliding spatula underneath frittatas to loosen bottoms and lift frittatas out of pans; serve. Yields 1 frittata per serving.
**Note: these stick to the pans even with cooking spray I recommend using muffin/cupcake papers to save on the clean up!
 
 
 
Kale Chips
These are super easy to make and you can flavor them with whatever you want.
Take your kale and remove all the leaves, place them in a large bowl add some olive oil on them to help the flavor stick and toss in whatever seasoning you wish. For this most recent batch I used seasoning salt and man were they good!
Put them in the oven at 350 for about 10-15 mins, until they feel crispy.
**Note: only use a small amount of olive oil, adding to much can make them soggy.
