Ingredients

Low-calorie cooking spray
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 courgette, finely chopped
100g cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tbsp each chopped fresh parsley and chives, plus extra to serve
100g roasted red peppers in brine from a jar, drained and roughly chopped
150g fat-free natural cottage cheese
4 medium eggs, lightly beaten

Method

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6. Lightly spray a non-stick ovenproof 18cm flan or pie dish with low-calorie cooking spray.

Step 2

Spray a non-stick frying pan with a couple of pumps of low-calorie cooking spray and put it over a medium heat. Stir-fry the onion, garlic, courgette and tomatoes for 6-8 minutes, or until softened. Remove from the heat. Stir in the herbs and peppers, then mix together the cottage cheese and eggs and pour in. Season lightly with pepper and spoon into the flan or pie dish.

Step 3

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until lightly golden and cooked through. Scatter over the extra herbs and serve with a salad.
