Sausage Frittata

Had a great "breakfast for dinner" night!  We had a turkey sausage frittata with fat-free blueberry muffins from Krusteaz (you can find them at your local grocer.)  Easy, delicious, and under 200 calories per serving!

Sausage Frittata
turkey breakfast sausage (I grabbed the tube from Wal-Mart)
3oz shredded reduced fat cheddar
6 egg whites
2 eggs
1/2C light ricotta cheese
1.5C broccoli florets (you can use froze, but I'd recommend fresh)
1 bunch of green onions chopped
1/2 green bell pepper diced

in 9-10in skillet, spray generously with non-stick spray
cook turkey sausage, broccoli, onions & green pepper until sausage is no longer pink.

In a separate bowl, whisk ricotta, egg and egg whites until very few lumps are left.
Once sausage is cooked, pour egg mixture over the top (you may have to spread). Cover, and cook for approx. 7 minutes or until mixture begins to set.
Sprinkle cheddar and cover for another 2 mintues to melt cheese.
Once egg has set, slide frittata out of skillet, cut into 6 servings and enjoy!

I can seriously eat breakfast for all 3 meals! This looks so good.
