Health and fertility benefits of Broccoli Mushroom Frittatas

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

3 c. chopped broccoli florets
1/2 c. diced broccoli stems
2 c. sliced mushrooms of choice
1 shallot
2 clove garlic
4 large whole eggs
3 egg whites

Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tbsp. fresh thyme
2 tsp. grainy or Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. red chili pepper flakes
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. Black pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli florets, broccoli stems, mushrooms, shallot, and garlic; cook 5 minutes.
