Recipes for Real Results: Spinach & Leek Frittata

This is so good and packed with protein! It has a delicious Greek flavor and I serve it with a mixed greens salad topped with balsamic vinegar and a piece of crusty whole-grain bread. Yummy!!
Spinach & Leek Frittata

• 6 eggs
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 bunch spinach, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 leek, coarsely chopped
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1/3 cup crumbled feta - I love the tomato & herb feta
• squeeze of fresh lemon juice
• sprinkle of salt

Preheat broiler. Beat eggs with water and add the chopped spinach to the egg mixture. In a medium skillet, add olive oil and leeks, sauté 3 minutes add the garlic and sauté another minute. Add the spinach-egg mixture all at once and cook over medium heat until almost done, about 7-10minutes. While the top is still very soft, sprinkle with cheese and put under the broiler until done, about 5 minutes. Season with a squeeze of lemon and a tiny pinch of salt and serve warm. Serves 4-6.
