The Hidden Hostess, Rebecca Elman, shares a recipe for Vegetable Frittata.
End of Summer Vegetable Frittata
Serves 6-8
Ingredients:
12 eggs
3 tablespoons heavy cream, half and half or whole milk
1 cup cheese, either grated or crumbled cheese (cheddar, goat’s
cheese, feta cheese, gruyere)
4 cups chopped vegetables, (cooked potatoes, spinach, mushrooms,
peppers, tomatoes, zucchini, onion, etc.)
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper
Fresh chopped herbs
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl whisk together your eggs and cream.
Using a 12-inch cast iron skillet or non-stick pan, heat your oil. Add
your vegetables, starting with denser vegetables such as onions, and
then add softer vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste and
cook vegetables until they are tender. Add any herbs or greens at the
end.
Pour the whisked egg mixture into the pan and using a spatula stir
gently until the vegetables are evenly spread out. Sprinkle your cheese
of chose over the eggs.
Once the edges start to turn light brown and set, place the whole pan in
the oven. Bake for 8-12 minutes. You want the frittata to be just set, so
do not overbake. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Slice and serve.
