An Easy Dinner


As many of you who follow my blog know we spend most of our time in a variety of Drs. offices. By the time we get home, it's normal for some of the specialists to run 1 - 2 hours behind, the last thing I feel like doing is cooking.
 
This is pretty fast and easy, I usually use whatever vegetables I have leftover from a previous meal. 

Egg and Cheese Frittata

2 handfuls Ham, diced
12 eggs
3 cups Broccoli, cut up
2 Garlic Cloves, minced
2 1/2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 cup Mozzarella, grated
1/4 Teaspoon Black Pepper, ground
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 425*

In a 9 - 12'' oven safe saute` pan over medium-high heat, cook the Broccoli in Olive Oil until soft and very lightly browned, about 5 - 8 minutes.  Add Garlic and saute` another 2 - 3 minutes. 


Meanwhile, whisk eggs with Parmesan, Mozzarella, Ham and Pepper. Set aside.


After Broccoli/Garlic is soft and cooked through, add egg/cheese mixture and let cook 30 seconds over high heat.  Transfer the pan to the heated oven and let the Frittata cook until the eggs are just set, about 25 - 30 minutes.  Remove the pan from the oven and turn the Frittata out with a rubber spatula onto a serving plate.


Cut it like a pie and serve it up!

Dinner's done :)

  4. I just made a very similar recipe this weekend but I threw mine into a pie plate and baked it in the oven quiche-style (just no crust). It is a delicious and quick meal and I love the leftovers for breakfast.

  5. We came home to Canada to a mandated and monitored quarantine to prevent the spread of COVID. After the first week I ran out of eggs. I should have brought more with me. This looks like a great simple dinner. I like that. - Margy

    1. I like simple dinners too. So beat by the end of the day, who feels like cooking! We're under COVID restrictions too. Grocers and other stores have gone to delivery. Doing OK so far. EXCEPT for cabin fever - another year of this? a lot of people are going to lose it. They better have an abundance of mental heath specialists ready! LOL

  7. So many things that can be added to use up leftovers or give it a little zest - mushrooms, black beans, peppers, etc. then topped with store bought salsa or guacamole. My kids like sesame, sunflower and pumpkins seeds sprinkled on everything for a little extra crunch and flavor.
