Zucchini, red pepper & leek frittata

Updated: Nov 5, 2009 03:55 PM EST

Serves 6

- 3 smallish zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 1 leeks, white part only, sliced
- 2 cups egg substitute, divided
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper, divided
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme, divided
- Vegetable or olive oil spray
 
 
Steam or microwave the vegetables together until tender - each will cook at the same approximate rate. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a light coat of oil on a heavy ovenproof skillet. On medium heat, heat oil, and add half of the egg substitute. Sprinkle it with half the thyme and half the black pepper. Let it cook for a few seconds, until it begins to bubble, and then use a spatula to pull the sides in and spread the uncooked egg over the bottom of the pan, as if cooking an omelet. When this is nearly cooked, add steamed vegetables to pan. Evenly pour in the remaining half of the egg substitute, and sprinkle on the remaining thyme and black pepper. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until egg is firm. Serve.

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
