Ham, Spinach and Mushroom Frittata

Over the weekend, I made this yummy frittata using a few things we had in the fridge.A frittata is basically quiche without the crust. I love quiche but frittata's are easier to make with on-hand items. I have to apologize, there is no picture with this one. I forgot. We were hungry. I plan to make this again and I will remember to take a picture before we eat.

Ingredients:
4 eggs and 2 egg whites
3 thin slices of ham, chopped (I bought too much lunch meat this week.)
8 ounce package mushrooms, chopped
1 cup chopped spinach (again, bought too much)
1 cup shredded sharp cheese
garlic powder
parsley

Directions:
  1. Add one tablespoon Olive Oil to pan and saute mushrooms with garlic powder to taste. Once mushrooms are soft, add chopped spinach. Once spinach wilts, remove pan from heat.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs and whites. Add cheese and about 1 tsp parsley.
  3. Combine egg mixture, ham, veggies in a 9 inch pie dish.
  4. Bake at 375 for about 30-40 minutes.
This can be made for breakfast, brunch or dinner. I have added different veggies according to what we have on hand. Even my 5 year old ate this one and asked for more.
