An omelet has eggs folded over stuff. A frittata has stuff folded into the eggs. A quiche is basically a frittata with a pie crust. So, I mean, you should make a quiche.     What ya need:  1/2 cup of finely chopped yellow onion 1 egg 2 egg whites 1/2 cup  of fat-free sour cream 6 ounces of diced lean ham 6 ounces of shredded low-fat Swiss cheese 1 ready-made 9-inch pie crust Ok, so: Set your oven rack to 1/3 off the bottom. Preheat your oven to 350ºF. In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the onions for 1 minute on high. Discard any fluids that may have come out of the onions and set the onions aside. Grease a pie pan with cooking spray and fit the pie crust to it. In a large bowl, beat the egg, egg whites, and sour cream together. Now stir in the onions ham and cheese. Pour the egg mixture in to the pie crust and place it in the oven. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the eggs are firm and the top of the quiche has lightly browned. Serve while hot!
