Sundried Tomato, Olive, Onion, and Artichoke Heart Low Carb, High-Protein Mock Focaccia

Where does the time go? Among other things, at least I got in a great workout this morning, and today I also made this recipe. Barbara a.k.a Protein Girl made some great suggestions for this recipe, and I had to try this out! I like it! And boyfriend approved!

Ingredients:

• 3 scoops Jay Robb Unflavored Whey Powder
• ¼ cup low sodium, low fat cottage cheese
• 1 tbsp Dijon style mustard
• 1 can sliced olives
• 1 can artichoke hearts, coarsely chopped
• 1 package extra moist sundried tomatoes
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 onion, minced
• 1 cup egg whites
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• a ton of Italian seasoning
• a little pepper

I preheated the oven to 400 and sautéed the onion with the garlic. While sautéing the onions, mix in a bowl the protein powder, egg whites, cottage cheese, mustard, seasonings, and veggies. Add the sautéed onions and garlic. Then mix it all up, pour into a sprayed pan, and throw in the oven for about 20 minutes. Cut into thin slices. Nice to toast before serving. Nice snack! Also, excellent when served with spaghetti squash and extra lean turkey meatballs . Makes 16 slices. Yum!
