Mini-Smoked Salmon Frittatas
From: www.health.com
SERVES 6
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup diced onion
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 ounces smoked salmon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
6 large eggs
8 large egg whites
1 tablespoon half-and-half *
3 tablespoons 1% milk
3 ounces 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, cubed
2 tablespoons scallions, thinly sliced, for garnish
* Note - Half & half translates to half cream, or a blend of whole milk and thick/double cream - the recommended proportions vary from equal parts to four parts whole milk with one part heavy cream. It should average 10 to 12% fat. Due to its lower fat content than cream, it can't be whipped.
Preheat oven to 325°. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet. Sauté onion 2–3 minutes or until soft; add salt, pepper, and salmon. Remove from stovetop; let cool.
Combine the next 4 ingredients (through milk) in a bowl. Stir in the cream cheese. Lightly coat 6 (8-ounce) ramekins with cooking spray. Add 2 tablespoons of salmon mixture to each ramekin. Pour 3/4 cup egg mixture into each ramekin. (Do not overfill.)
Place ramekins on baking sheet; bake 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Garnish, if desired.
