"When we were growing up, spinach was one of the only vegetables my brothers and I enjoyed," recalls Paula Tuduri, Bozeman, Montana. "So our mom found all kinds of ways to include it in meals. This dish is one of my favorites. Be creative," she suggests. "Feel free to vary the vegetables, cheeses and meat to suit your tastes and budget."

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 stalks green onions, sliced
5 large egg whites
3 large eggs
2 cups fresh spinach
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
½ (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and green onions; cook and stir until softened, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl.
Add egg whites, eggs, and spinach to the mushroom mixture; stir with a fork until well combined.
Heat remaining oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture and scatter cooked chicken over top. Cover the skillet and cook until eggs are set around the edges, about 4 minutes.
Remove the cover and transfer the skillet to the oven. Broil until lightly browned and the center is set, about 4 minutes.
Remove from the oven, top with mozzarella cheese, and cover; let stand until cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Cut into 4 slices and serve.
