Smoked Ham "Soufflé" (Phases 2 and 3)

This mock soufflé is healthier than many other breakfast foods and easier to make, too. You can assemble it in the morning and bake it later when you're ready.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients
2 eggs
4 egg whites
1 1/2 cups fat-free milk
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded, reduced-fat extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
4 slices light whole-wheat bread, cubed
1 can (4 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
1 cup broccoli florets or 2 spears asparagus, trimmed and chopped
4 ounces lean smoked ham, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs and egg whites until frothy. Stir in the milk, cheese, bread, mushrooms, broccoli or asparagus, ham, and Italian seasoning. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until it is golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
