Broccoli And Cheddar Frittata - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 large eggs
    4 large egg whites
    2 tablespoons water
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1 small red onion, cut in half and sliced into half-moons
    2 cups frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    fresh ground black pepper, to taste
    2 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
Preparation
    Preheat the broiler.
    Combine the whole eggs, egg whites, and water in a medium bowl and whisk well.
    In a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet, covering them evenly. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let cook until the egg mixture has set around the edges of the pan but is still somewhat liquid in the middle, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese.
    Place the skillet under the broiler about 2 inches from the heat until the surface is set and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook or the egg mixture will become tough.
    Cut the frittata into 8 wedges and serve.
