This is a wonderful dish that I modified for the first time a couple nights ago. I found the original recipe in a magazine many years ago and it was called "Fabulous Fritata". I made the recipe many times, loved it, but struggled to cook it through without burning the top or bottom. I had an idea this last time around and it worked! I turned it into more of a tart, cooked in a pie dish with a crust. Lovely, just delicious. Easier cleanup, easier prep.
3/4 pkg Morningstar sausage style crumbles
2 cups thinly sliced red potato
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 tsp dried rosemary
2 cups (or a bit more) fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
3 cloves garlic
4 large eggs, 8 egg whites
4 oz crumbled feta cheese
Pre-made rolled out pie crust
olive oil
1. Saute potato in a large non-stick skillet in olive oil for a couple minutes. Add onion, bell pepper, rosemary, crumbles, salt and pepper. Cook about 5 - 10 minutes until potatoes are just tender.
2. Stir in spinach and garlic, cook one more minute. Remove from heat.
3. Beat eggs in a large bowl. Pour into veggie mixture. Add cheese. Stir gently to combine.
4. Pour mixture into a pie dish covered with the pie crust. Bake at 425 for 30 minutes until cooked through and browned on the top.
