    Ingredients

      Vegetable cooking spray
      1 med. Poblano chili/sliced
      1 med. onion, sliced
      2 C sliced mushrooms
      2 cloves garlic/minced
      2 T finely chopped parsley
      1/2 C vegetable, or chicken broth
      1-1/2 C egg substitute or 6 eggs
      1/4 C- FF milk
      1/2 C cooked brown rice
      1/2 C (2 oz) shredded FF Cheddar cheese
      1/4 tsp salt
      1/8 tsp pepper
      4 slices Italian, or French, bread
      4 tsp grated Parmesan cheese


    Spray a medium oven-proof skillet with cooking spray; heat until hot. Sauté vegetables 5 minutes; add parsley and broth. Cook covered over medium heat until vegetables are tender and liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

    Beat egg substitute and milk, mix in cooked rice, Cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper, pour over vegetables in skillet; cook without stirring, uncovered, over medium-low heat until egg is set and lightly browned on bottom, 15 to 20 minutes.

    Broil frittata 6 inches from heat source until cooked on top, 3 to 4 minutes; invert frittata onto plate, slide back into skillet, and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes.

    Sprinkle bread with Parmesan cheese; broil 6 inches from heat source until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Slide frittata onto serving plate; cut into wedges. Serve with Parmesan toast.
