This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of AllWhites Egg Whites. All opinions are 100% mine.

Soon enough you will get your fill of hard cooked eggs (Easter!), but today I want to invite you to join the frittata bandwagon.

If you haven’t ever tried a frittata at home, you surely must because this is the most versatile dish you can imagine — quick, easy and healthy for a breakfast, brunch, lunch, snack or even brinner (breakfast for dinner!).

It’s a quick bake of eggs or egg whites, flavored with aromatics and full of all sorts of vegetables, or maybe potatoes, or whatever you like. It’s not a fussy folded-over omelet, and not a messy scramble. It’s a baked Italian egg dish that can have a place at every American table.

For today’s recipe, I’m partnering with AllWhites Egg Whites 100% liquid egg whites to show you a frittata recipe that can fuel your fitness goals and promote weight management as well as a healthy lifestyle. Of course, it does all this deliciously, because healthy food absolutely must taste fabulous. That’s a given, or no one will want to follow a healthy diet!

Ingredients for Frittata Bites

Stirred into the egg whites are a couple of my favorite ingredients — beloved spinach, sweet tomatoes, a handful of shredded cheese and some important aromatics like garlic and leeks.

What emerges is a true rainbow on the plate. We ate this for dinner with a simple cucumber salad and congratulated ourselves on a fit and fabulous meal.

Egg whites are so yummy and healthy. I do love eggs though too! I would add the whites to a smoothie since they are pasteurized and offer good protein. Egg white oats with peanut butter is also amazing!

It surely looks healthy and delicious! I would love to try it… such products are not very popular where I live!

I perused through the recipes on their site, and one that caught my eye was the good-for-you triple chocolate brownies.

David,
Those triple brownies just HAVE to be made!

I must share this with my sister. She only eats egg whites. Not for any particular reason other than that she doesn’t like yolk. I bet she would love a frittata with just the whites!

I would make a Spinach Ham egg white frittata!

This looks like a wonderful and delicious way to use egg whites. I love spinach too and I will definitely try this at my next ladies’ brunch!

This is a great way to use up leftover egg whites when my dessert recipes call for just egg yolks!

I used that product when making a gluten-free bread from Peter Reinhart’s new book. It called for 7 egg whites, and he himself recommended using it instead of real eggs, so you don’t have to find ways to use 7 yolks… 🙂

I have never made a all white frittata, yours looks amazing!

This sounds delicious. I have to admit, I’ve never bought a carton of just egg whites and since I can’t bear throwing all the yolks out, I just usually use the whole egg. This sounds like a delightful way to start the morning though. Yum!

Your frittata looks reallly, really tasty! Love all the veggies that you added, yum! 🙂

What wouldn’t I want to make with egg whites! I would probably whip up a frittata and have breakfast for dinner 🙂

Omelettes! I love and dearly miss any eggs. Love how easy breakfast meal came out!

I have started using just egg whites in an effort to increase my protein intake..I definitely need to try this!

I always keep a container of these in my fridge. I use them a lot for cocktails!

Macaron!! But I’m not sure I can with those. I’d probably make a nice fritatta like yours!
