100-Calorie Ham and Cheese Individual Frittatas Popular Ingredients

• Nonstick cooking spray
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 6 ounces ham steak, cut in 1/4-inch dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
• 1 1/2 cups 1/8-inch-thick slices red onion
• 6 whole large eggs
• 4 large egg whites
• 3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat sharp Cheddar
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Steps for making 100-Calorie Ham and Cheese Individual Frittatas

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.
2. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the ham and cook until shrunken and somewhat dried, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook another 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
3. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and the onions to the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and very soft, 11 to 12 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, lightly beat the whole eggs and egg whites in a large bowl. Add all but 2 tablespoons of the cheese, the salt and thyme, and whisk until well blended. Stir in the ham and onions.
5. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture at a time into the prepared muffin pan, and divide the remaining 2 tablespoons of cheese over the tops. Bake in the center of the oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Healthy – Health, according to the World Health Organization, is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity”. A variety of definitions have been used for different purposes over time. Health can be promoted by encouraging healthful activities, such as regular physical exercise and adequate sleep, and by reducing or avoiding unhealthful activities or situations, such as smoking or excessive stress. Some factors affecting health are due to individual choices, such as whether to engage in a high-risk behavior, while others are due to structural causes, such as whether the society is arranged in a way that makes it easier or harder for people to get necessary healthcare services. Still other factors are beyond both individual and group choices, such as genetic disorders.
• Frittata – Frittata is an egg-based Italian dish similar to an omelette or crustless quiche or scrambled eggs, enriched with additional ingredients such as meats, cheeses, or vegetables. The word frittata is Italian and roughly translates to “fried”.
• Ham – Ham is pork from a leg cut that has been preserved by wet or dry curing, with or without smoking. As a processed meat, the term “ham” includes both whole cuts of meat and ones that have been mechanically formed.Ham is made around the world, including a number of regional specialties, such as Westphalian ham and some varieties of Spanish jamón. In addition, numerous ham products have specific geographical naming protection, such as prosciutto di Parma in Europe, and Smithfield ham in the US.

• Gluten Free – A gluten-free diet (GFD) is a nutritional plan that strictly excludes gluten, which is a mixture of proteins found in wheat (and all of its species and hybrids, such as spelt, kamut, and triticale), as well as barley, rye, and oats. The inclusion of oats in a gluten-free diet remains controversial, and may depend on the oat cultivar and the frequent cross-contamination with other gluten-containing cereals.Gluten may cause both gastrointestinal and systemic symptoms for those with gluten-related disorders, including coeliac disease (CD), non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), gluten ataxia, dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), and wheat allergy. In these people, the gluten-free diet is demonstrated as an effective treatment, but several studies show that about 79% of the people with coeliac disease have an incomplete recovery of the small bowel, despite a strict gluten-free diet. This is mainly caused by inadvertent ingestion of gluten. People with a poor understanding of a gluten-free diet often believe that they are strictly following the diet, but are making regular errors.In addition, a gluten-free diet may, in at least some cases, improve gastrointestinal or systemic symptoms in diseases like irritable bowel syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, or HIV enteropathy, among others. There is no good evidence that gluten-free diets are an alternative medical treatment for people with autism.Gluten proteins have low nutritional and biological value and the grains that contain gluten are not essential in the human diet. However, an unbalanced selection of food and an incorrect choice of gluten-free replacement products may lead to nutritional deficiencies. Replacing flour from wheat or other gluten-containing cereals with gluten-free flours in commercial products may lead to a lower intake of important nutrients, such as iron and B vitamins. Some gluten-free commercial replacement products are not enriched or fortified as their gluten-containing counterparts, and often have greater lipid/carbohydrate content. Children especially often over-consume these products, such as snacks and biscuits. Nutritional complications can be prevented by a correct dietary education.A gluten-free diet may be based on gluten-free foods, such as meat, fish, eggs, milk and dairy products, legumes, nuts, fruits, vegetables, potatoes, rice, and corn. Gluten-free processed foods may be used. Pseudocereals (quinoa, amaranth, and buckwheat) and some minor cereals are alternative choices.
