Ingredients
- 3 large eggs, plus 3 egg whites
- 3/4 cup 2% reduced-fat cottage cheese
- 4 ounces smoked gouda cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped Kosher salt
- 1 16-ounce package frozen mixed vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower and carrots), thawed
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 1 scant teaspoon paprika
- 4 slices multigrain bread
Directions
Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Whisk the whole eggs and whites in a bowl. Add the cottage cheese and whisk until almost smooth. Whisk in the gouda and rosemary.
Cook the garlic in the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the onion, season with salt and cook 2 minutes. Add the vegetables, increase the heat to high and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium. Spread the egg mixture evenly in the pan. Cook, undisturbed, until a thin crust forms on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Run a rubber spatula around the edge to release the egg from the pan. Continue cooking until the bottom is golden, 2 to 3 more minutes. Sprinkle with the parmesan and paprika; transfer to the oven and bake until just set, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven, cover and let sit, 5 to 7 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with the bread.

Such and easy, tasty and versatile recipe. I will definately make this again, but next time I will add some ham or bacon and probably use fresh veggies. But it's a great recipe for a busy family as written, comes together in no time!

I wish I read the reviews first... I LOVE cheese, but the cheese in this recipe could easily be cut in half or less and it would still be good. Now I'm bummed to have wasted all those calories... I'll probably make it again, with MUCH less cheese.

Loved! I wanted to use fresh veggies so I used zucchini, squash, and spinich in place of their frozen veggies. Delicious recipe and easy to make!
