Frittata with Smoked Salmon, Cream Cheese and Dill

 

This sensational frittata is a light and healthy alternative to lox and cream cheese on a bagel! Serve alongside wholegrain toast or an English muffin for a complete meal. Smoked salmon freezes well and will keep in the refrigerator for up to one week. Photo by Brian MacDonald.

 

 

 

 

 

 

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Lightly coat a small non-stick skillet with vegetable oil spray. Heat the oil over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic for 3 minutes, or until the onion is tender and lightly browned. Remove from the heat and set aside.

2. Whisk the egg substitute, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper together. Add the onion mixture.

3. Spray a clean 10-inch skillet with vegetable oil, add the egg mixture and cook for 4 minutes, or until nearly set.

4. Dot the cream cheese overtop, cover and cook until the frittata is set, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the dill and smoked salmon. Slip the frittata onto a serving platter with a spatula.

5. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
