Ingredients

  • 4 large zucchini (about 2 pounds)
  • Salt to taste
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup egg whites (about 8 eggs worth of whites)
  • 1/2 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt
  • Black Pepper to taste
  • 2 cups broccoli chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups kale torn and lightly packed
  • 1 1/2 cups reduced-fat cheddar cheese shredded, divided

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Use the 6mm blade on your spiralizer to spiralize the zucchini into long noodles.
  • Set a strainer or fine mesh sieve over a large bowl. Place zucchini noodles in strainer and sprinkle with a large pinch of salt to draw out moisture. Let noodles sit for 20 minutes, stirring every so often and squeezing to release more water.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and egg whites. Add in Greek yogurt and a pinch of black pepper and salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Once zucchini noodles have sat, squeeze out as much excess water as you can. Then, transfer noodles to a paper towel and dry off, again, as much moisture as you can.
  • Stir zucchini noodles, broccoli, kale and 1 cup cheddar cheese into egg mixture and mix well until fully combined.
  • Pour mixture into prepared skillet and spread out evenly. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese.
  • Bake until eggs feel set and begin to slightly pull away from the sides of the skillet, about 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Turn on the broiler to high and broil for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown. Let sit for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
