Chicken frittata

Chicken frittata

I came home late last night from my gym class and wanted something quick and easy but also healthy and filling. I had leftover chicken and some veg in the fridge that needed to be used up, so i added a few egg whites and wallah! a very tasty frittata!

what I used:
3 egg whites
2 green spring onions or shallots(everyone calls them different things)
chopped broccoli
snow peas
50-100gms of cooked chicken chopped
handfull of baby spinach
1tsp coconut oil
pepper 

With the fillings, you can use what ever veggies or meant you like, mushrooms, grated zucchini, green peas, carrot, capsicum, and if you wanted to you can add a bit of cheese :)

What to do:
Heat up a small non-stick fry pan with the coconut oil to medium heat, then add the spring onions and the chopped chicken, cook for a few minutes until the onions have softened, then add the broccoli and snow peas, cook for another couple of mins, stiring as you go, then pour over the egg whites so it covers the mixture, cover with a lid, turn the heat to low and let it cook for about 5-10 mins or until the egg whites have turned white and cooked.
Once it looks cooked, grab a plate and place the baby spinach in the center, turn/flip the frittata onto the pile of spinach, add a bit of pepper, and there you have my chicken frittata!
