Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cauliflower Rice
  • 1 cup Kale shredded
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Parmesan
  • 6 Egg Whites
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Almond Milk unsweetened
  • 1/2 teaspoon Thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper

Instructions

  • Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add cauliflower crumbles to the skillet with 1/4 cup water.
  • Cover the skillet to cook the cauliflower rice until it softens, about 8 minutes. If you're using frozen cauliflower rice that's been pre-thawed, then you may only need to cook 3-5 minutes. For fresh cauliflower rice, it will take closer to 8 minutes.
  • While the cauliflower rice is cooking, mix eggs, milk, garlic powder, thyme, salt and pepper with a hand mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Chop the kale then add it to the skillet with the cauliflower rice stirring to combine. Cook until the kale has wilted about 2-3 minutes then remove the vegetables from the skillet and add them to the egg mixture.
  • Spray the skillet with nonstick cooking spray and add the eggs and vegetables back into the skillet, sprinkle with parmesan, cover and cook until the edges are set, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile heat the oven broiler to high. After 5 minutes, remove the cover and place the skillet in the oven for 8 minutes until the top of the frittata is fully cooked.
  • Slice into 2 large slices and serve or store in the refrigerator up to 5 days.

Notes

  • Cauliflower rice is found frozen section or also in fresh produce at grocery stores. I prefer using frozen cauliflower rice that's been thawed and drained for this recipe.
  • My Amazon shop has more products similar to those used for this recipe and that I recommend to my nutrition clients.
