Recipe from The Saint Tropez Diet

Serving Size: 1/4 recipe
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients
• 8 eggs
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 ounces onions, diced (about 1/2 small onion)
• 6 ounces tomatoes (about 1 large tomato)
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 6 ounces bell peppers (about 1 large bell pepper)
• 6 ounces cooked spinach, chopped (about 2/3 cup cooked spinach)
• 2 tablespoons fresh salad herbs, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste


Directions
1. Make a small X incision on the top and bottom of the tomatoes. Blanch the tomatoes for 20 seconds. Place in ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. Peel, seed, and dice the tomatoes.

2. Heat the oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent. Add the garlic, bell peppers, and cook for 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and saute quickly. Add the spinach, herbs, and season to taste. Spread the vegetables evenly over the bottom of the pan.

3. In a bowl, beat the eggs and milk and season to taste. Add the egg mixture to the vegetables and let the eggs set. Reduce heat and continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in half, cook for another minute, and serve immediately.
