Mini Ham and Cheese Frittatas -- 1 Smart Point

I tweaked an online recipe to make these.  Based on the ingredients I used, regular full fat cheddar cheese and Great Value deli sliced ham, the Smart Point total for the entire recipe is only 8!

Two mini-fritatas are only 1 Smart Point.  Four of them would make a really hearty filling breakfast and would have the same number of points as a single egg.



MINI HAM AND CHEESE FRITTATAS -- 8 Smart Points

Makes 16 mini frittatas
2 mini frittatas are 1 Smart Point

½ cup diced onion
5 slices of thin sliced deli ham ( 2 oz.)
4 large egg whites +  1 large whole egg
1 oz. grated cheddar cheese
2 T. chopped green onion or chives
Ground pepper

Sweat diced onion in a non-stick skillet with a tiny amount of water until tender.
Finely chop the ham slices and add to the onion.  Set aside to cool.
Beat the egg whites and egg until frothy.  Add to cooled ham and onion mixture.  Stir in grated cheese and green onion or chives.  Sprinkle in black pepper. 

I found that no salt needed to be added, the ham and cheese provides enough.

Spoon into 18 mini-muffin cups.

Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes.  Just until the eggs set.  Frittatas will continue cooking after removing them from the oven.
