A generous shower of basil adds freshness and flavor to this hearty egg dish. For a well-balanced meal, serve with a tangy green salad. Ingredients:
1 cooking spray |
3 cups sliced cremini mushrooms |
1 1/4 cups thinly sliced leek (about 2 large) |
1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk |
2 teaspoons butter, melted |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
4 large egg whites |
3 large eggs |
4 oz linguine (4 oz) |
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add mushrooms and leek; cook 6 minutes or until leek is tender, stirring frequently.
3. Combine milk and next 5 ingredients (milk through eggs) in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add leek mixture, pasta, and basil; toss gently to combine.
4. Heat pan over medium-low heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add egg mixture; cook until edges begin to set (about 4 minutes). Gently lift edge of egg mixture, tilting pan to allow some uncooked egg mixture to come in contact with pan. Cook 5 minutes or until almost set.
