Frittata

Frittata, the crust-less quiche! If you have a bunch of different vegies in the fridge that you'd like to use up, making a frittata is the perfect solution. I like them because of the convenience, their versatility, and of course their deliciousness. If omelettes frustrate you as much as they do me in the morning, this is definitely the easier, and if I may say so myself, the yummier option.




 
I have made ricotta frittata and I have made cheese frittata. You can make these as healthy as you'd like. I recently found an amazing looking recipe: zucchini frittata with chives . You can either saute or roast the vegetables you intend to put into the frittata. I have found roasting gives a much better flavor. I coat my cast iron skillet with olive oil, add vegetables, saute, and then add the egg mixture. I mix the egg and the vegetable and let cook on the stove top for about 2 minutes and then I bake it in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes.

Happy frittata making!
