1 cup mushrooms
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup sweet red pepper, finely chopped
2 cups egg substitute
1/2 cup low-fat or fat free cottage cheese
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
2 (6 inch) whole wheat pita breads, cut in half.
Coat medium nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high
heat until hot. Add mushrooms, onion and red pepper and saute for 4-5
minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Combine egg substitute, cottage cheese and pepper in a small bowl and stir
well. Cook mixture over medium heat until firm, add cheese and continue to
cook until cheese melts.
Spoon mixture evenly into pita halves and serve (heating pitas in the
microwave for a few seconds will make them more pliable and easier to work
with).
