Make a delicious frittata with the flavor of pepperoni pizza. Instead of a traditional crust, this pizza base features a tender and fluffy omelet made with egg whites. Top it with tomato marinara sauce, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella, garnish with pepperoni slices, and finish with Parmesan cheese. The frittata base is fried in a skillet on the stovetop, and the topping is crisped in the oven using the broiler setting. It's ready in minutes! This frittata can be served as a gluten-free, low-calorie pizza for a healthy snack, or topped with salad greens in a vinaigrette and a slice of bread for breakfast.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat oven to grill mode.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and egg whites with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper. In a large oven-safe nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until the egg begins to set, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler and broil until the frittata is set but not browned, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Spread the marinara sauce over the frittata, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle with grated mozzarella, pepperoni, and Parmesan. Return the frittata to the oven and broil until the cheese begins to bubble, 1 to 2 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the vinegar with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Add the salad greens and bell pepper and toss. Sprinkle the frittata with basil and cut into wedges. Serve with a salad and bread.
