For Easter I decided to try something new and make a frittata. Our grocery store had a special where you could get a free dozen eggs with a purchase so we had plenty of eggs. The cool thing about a frittata is that you can add almost anything to it. I kept it simple with what we had, onions, peppers and cheese but in the future would probably add mushrooms and you could also add any variety of meat.
It turned out really well and the eggs were perfectly fluffy. I would definitely make this again and the nice thing is that you can pretty much make it different every time.
Ingredients:
8 eggs
1tbsp butter
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup cheese ( I used cheddar, Parmesan and Monterey Jack)
1 bell pepper, 1/2 cup onion (or whatever toppings you choose)
1/2 tbsp each rosemary, basil and thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350
On the stove heat 1tbsp butter in a cast iron skillet
Once butter is melted add your toppings (I used 1/2 cup onions and a diced bell pepper)
Sauté until done.
In a bowl beat 8 eggs well. Mix in milk and spices.
Pour egg mixture over sautéed veggies and stir to mix.
That is the last time you will stir it. Let it set for about 5 minutes adding cheese around 3 or 4 minutes.
Place the skillet in the oven and cook for 8-10 minutes until eggs are done (shouldn't jiggle)
Cut into slices and enjoy!!!!
