Direcciones

  1. Spray a 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray.
  2. Measure 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese, put in a fine strainer, and rinse with cold water.
  3. Cut off the root end and dark green part of the leek, then cut into fourths lengthwise and slice into thin pieces. Wash sliced leeks and dry.
  4. Heat olive oil in a frying pan with tall sides, then add leeks and saute 3-4 minutes. Then add the spinach leaves and saute 3-4 minutes more.
  5. Pour the frozen potatoes into the frying pan. Shake a little salt and pepper over the top and mix all together. Transfer all potatoes, leeks, spinach to 9x13 baking pan.
  6. In a large bowl whisk the eggs up with Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt & pepper add cottage cheese. Stir to mix it all together.
  7. Pour egg mixture over, then use a fork to gently stir so the veggies, potatoes and ham are evenly distributed in the eggs. Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Cover with foil and let it hang out in the fridge until ready to bake…
  8. Bake at 350 for 90 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving. This will help the pieces hold shape.
