Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and diced
2 medium zucchini, diced
1 cup chopped flat (Italian) parsley
1 cup scallions, chopped
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
2 large eggs
5 large egg whites
2 tablespoons low fat milk
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In a large skillet on medium-low heat, add oil and sauté onion until tender, about 4 minutes. Add diced bell pepper and zucchini. Continue sautéing 2 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, milk, oregano, salt and pepper, and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Lightly spray a 9” pie dish and add most of the sautéed vegetables. Set the remaining vegetables aside.
Pour egg mixture over vegetables. Make sure to cover all veggies. Add remaining veggies to the top.
Loosely cover with foil and bake 10 minutes at 425 degrees.
Reduce heat to 350 and continue baking 20-25 minutes. Remove foil the last few minutes of baking time and sprinkle with the remaining parmesan cheese. Quiche is done when it puffs and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
