Ingredients
16ozpolenta - 1 log cut into 12 slices
2cupsjarred marinara
6ozbaby spinach - 1 package
2clovesgarlic - minced
1cupliquid egg whites
½cupfresh grated parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425.
Spray a baking sheet with nonfat cooking spray, and arrange the polenta slices on it. Lightly sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper onto the slices. Place in oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until polenta is heated through and begins to turn golden on the edges.
Spray a medium-sized skillet with non-fat cooking spray, and set over medium-high heat. Add in garlic, and saute until garlic becomes fragrant about 1-2 minutes.
Add in spinach leaves and cook until spinach wilts, about 3-4 minutes.
Add in marinara sauce and cook until thoroughly heated.
Make a small indentation in the spinach and sauce mixture, creating a small well for the egg. And then gently pour ¼ cup liquid egg whites into the well. Continue with the remaining egg whites.
Reduce heat to medium. Cover and let cook for about 5 minutes.
Place 3 slices of polenta on each plate or shallow bowl. Top with 1 egg white well, ¼ of the spinach/sauce, and then cover with 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese.
