Ingredients

scaled for 2
  • 1 largeflour tortilla
  • 6eggs
  • ½ cupplain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ tspsalt
  • ⅛ tspblack pepper
  • 1 spraycooking spray or a little oil

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly grease an oven-safe dish or pie pan that lets the tortilla curve up the sides.

  2. 2

    Press the tortilla into the dish to form the crust. If it feels stiff, warm it briefly first so it bends without tearing.

  3. 3

    Whisk the eggs and Greek yogurt until combined; the mixture does not need to be perfectly smooth. If you chose cottage cheese or ricotta, use it instead of the yogurt. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Prepare any vegetables. Sauté cremini mushrooms, peppers, or onions until their excess moisture cooks off. Pat diced tomatoes dry; wilt sturdy greens if needed.

  5. 5

    Pour the egg mixture into the tortilla. Add as much of your selected greens, vegetables, olives, and shredded cheese as you like.

  6. 6

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the center is fully set and reaches 160°F.

  7. 7

    Rest for 5 minutes, then cut into four slices and serve.

Use a tortilla that fits the dish and curves up the sides. Cooking time may vary with the pan and amount of toppings.
