Do you like omelette's?
Do you like quiche?
If so then I can guarantee that you will like a frittata.
Eggs, milk, cheese, veggies, bread, potato and meat ... any and all these things in one bite ... YUM!
I am a big breakfast food lover! 9 times out of 10, when I go out for breakfast, I will order an omelette - so I don't think it's a big surprise to find that I love frittata's!
In November I decided to try making my first one, it required some stove top cooking and then a bit of time in the oven (thank goodness my mother had two cast iron frying pans that can do stove top to oven with no problem)! I'd found the recipe in one of the multitude of cooking store magazines in the house and decided to give it a go. Deliciousness ensued ... and all who tried said they thoroughly enjoyed!
*Here's a snapshot ... one with peppers and one without (for those who don't like'em)! I got it from the Williams Sonoma Catalog.
"Lodge Brunch Frittata"
Then last month, February 9th to be exact, I got an awesome Frittata Pan for my Birthday! Woot woot! Thanks Mom and Dad!!!
These pans are awesome, they eliminate the need for in the oven time because you can flip them! What you say? Check out these pics of my second time making Frittata's and the first time use of my new Frittata Pan!
"Potato, Spinach and Cheddar Cheese Frittata"
(I found this recipe on line)
First One ...
Second one ...
The prep time - chopping etc. - takes a bit of time, but they are easy and tasty! You can put anything you want in them - in fact I once had one when staying at a friends, her husband put baby scallops and asparagus that had been lightly sauteed in garlic oil, in it and it was fantastic! And they are so pretty! Great "wow" factor me thinks!
And isn't my new pan pretty!
Give it a go!
