Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400° F. Lightly coat two oven safe 8 ounce ramekins (3 1/2 inches in diameter) with cooking spray. Cut a circle from each slice of bread and firmly press into bottoms of both ramekins, set aside.

Lightly coat a medium saute’pan with cooking spray, heat over medium high heat. Add onion, red pepper and zucchini to pan, cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables soften and onion is translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes. Promptly remove from heat, set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, salt and pepper until well combined, stir in cooked vegetables and cheese. Pour equal amounts of egg/vegetable mixture into each ramekin. Bake, uncovered, until a knife inserted into center of a ramekin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove promptly from oven, let sit for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
