Artichokes & egg whites are an unlikely PCOS-friendly delight!
Artichoke & Egg White Frittata
Description
One of our very favorite unlikely pairings with egg whites is artichoke hearts. Without yolks, you need flavor and artichoke hearts do a great job bringing the pickley, tangy flavor! Add a little oil & garlic and you're in the deliciousness business.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat half of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 8-inch nonstick omelet pan. Add the garlic and the artichoke hearts, and cook, stirring often, until the artichokes are cooked through. Remove from the heat.
-
Beat the eggs in a medium bowl and add the almond milk, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the artichokes and mix well. Clean and dry the pan.
-
Heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat in the omelet pan. When a tiny bit of egg dropped into the pan sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs, filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently and tilt it, lifting up the edges of the frittata with the spatula to let the liquid eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. After the first few minutes of cooking, turn the heat down to low, cover and cook 7 to 10 minutes, until the frittata is puffed and just about set. From time to time remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the omelet so that the bottom doesn’t burn, but turns golden
-
Eat it hot, or cool to room temperature, and serve, or chill. Cut into wedges to pack up and easily transport.

Note
If the frittata is still runny on the top, flip it carefully by sliding the frittata out onto a plate, topping it with the pan, and flipping the whole thing so the uncooked side goes onto the hot pan.
