Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons 30 mL olive oil
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 2 small zucchinis diced small
  • 2 small yellow squashes diced small (or 2 additional zucchinis if yellow squash is unavailable)
  • 1/4 cup fat-free feta cheese crumbles 25 g
  • 1/4 cup grated low-fat Parmesan cheese 20 g
  • 1/4 cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs 30 g
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Spray a 9 x 13 inch (23 x 33 cm) casserole dish with non-stick spray and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the baby spinach, diced zucchinis, and diced yellow squashes (if using). Cook for about 5 minutes until the spinach wilts and the squashes become soft. Drain off any excess liquid and transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  • To the mixing bowl, add the fat-free feta cheese crumbles, grated low-fat Parmesan cheese, whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs, egg whites, kosher salt, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and dried basil leaves. Mix well to combine.
  • Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
  • Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until the top turns golden brown.
  • Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving.
