Make A Vegetable And Goat Cheese Frittata In 25 Minutes Recipes

4-CHEESE GARDEN VEGETABLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Tightly wrap the bottom and sides of two 6-inch round springform pans with aluminum foil and transfer to a baking sheet.
• For the cheese filling: Beat the cream cheese and goat cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, add the chives and parsley and mix until just combined. Cover and chill until firm and cold, at least 1 hour and up to overnight. (You want the cheese to be cold enough so it doesn't seep out the sides when the frittatas are stacked on top of each other).
• For the asparagus frittata: Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water.
• Trim and discard the woody stems from the asparagus. Cut 3 inches off the top of each asparagus spear (measuring from the tip) and set aside. Thinly slice the remaining parts of the stalks. Set aside 1/2 cup and reserve the remaining asparagus for another use.
• Add the 3-inch asparagus pieces to the boiling water and cook until tender but still very bright green, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer them to the ice water to stop the cooking. Remove them to a cutting board and slice each stalk lengthwise down the middle. Reserve for decorating.
• Whisk the heavy cream, Parmesan, mozzarella, dill, mint, eggs, scallions, reserved 1/2 cup asparagus, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into one of the prepared springform pans. Reserve the bowl for the second frittata.
• For the spinach frittata: Whisk the heavy cream, Parmesan, mozzarella, spinach, chives, parsley, eggs, scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in the reserved bowl until well combined. Pour the mixture into the other prepared springform pan and scatter the tomatoes over top.
• Bake both frittatas until they are set but still have a very slight jiggle in the center, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• To assemble: Release the latches of the springform pans, remove the plates from the bottom of each and place the asparagus frittata on a cake stand or serving platter. Spread 3/4 cup of the cold cheese mixture over top of the frittata. Top with the spinach frittata. Spread the rest of the cheese mixture around the perimeter of the frittatas as if you were frosting a cake. Press the asparagus pieces around the frittatas with the flat sides touching the cheese and the pointed tips facing up to look like grass. (The asparagus should be touching, side by side, so that no cheese is visible.). Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Slice and serve cold.

LOADED BAKED FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until smooth. Set aside.
• Put bacon in a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron or oven-safe nonstick skillet. Set over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add onion, peppers and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the spinach a handful at a time, stirring after each addition, to wilt.
• Reduce heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the vegetables, then smooth the top. Drop small nuggets of goat cheese evenly on top. Transfer to the oven.
• Bake until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set, 20 to 25 minutes. When you shake the pan, the eggs shouldn't jiggle. Cool on a rack for about 10 minutes.
• Cut into wedges to serve warm or at room temperature.

SPRING VEGETABLE & GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 435 F.
• In a large bowl, add eggs and beat well. Add cheese, tomatoes, basil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and thyme; whisk well to combine; set aside.
• In a medium ovenproof* skillet sprayed with non stick spray, add onions, zucchini, and asparagus pieces; saute over medium high heat for about 5 minutes or until onions are translucent and zucchini is browned.
• Pour egg mixture into skillet, and stir once or twice to combine with vegetables. Cook for 2 minutes over medium heat, without stirring.
• Cut goat cheese into 1/2 inch slices and place on top of the frittata. Transfer skillet to the oven. Cook for 12-15 minutes or until eggs are set.
• Slice and serve immediately.
• *If your skillet has a plastic or rubber handle, cover it in aluminum foil completely. Most skillets can safely go into the oven this way. Be careful when removing any skillet from the oven, the handle is HOT.

VEGETABLE + GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, crack in the eggs and add in the milk, salt and pepper. Whisk until everything is combined. Try not to beat too much air into the eggs and then set aside.
• In a 10-inch oven safe skillet add 1 tablespoon of oil and heat on medium to medium-high. Add in the onions and cook until translucent and soft, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add in the bell pepper, zucchini and a small pinch of salt, stir and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes before transferring to a clean bowl.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan. Drop in the tomatoes and a small pinch of salt. Cook the tomatoes until the skin starts to split. Add in the tomatoes and spinach and cook until the spinach has wilted and the mushrooms are tender, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium-low and temporarily remove the skillet off of the heat. Add the bell pepper mixture to the tomatoes and spinach, stir and then spread the veggies into an even layer. Give the pan a chance to cool a little bit, before pouring in the egg mixture.
• Return the pan to the burner and cook until the eggs start to thicken around the edges. Crumble the soft goat cheese and drop it over top of the frittata before sliding the pan on to the middle rack of your oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the eggs have set, keep in mind that the goat cheese may be bubbling.
• Cool the frittata for a moment before slicing into wedges and serving with a few small (or thinly sliced) basil leaves and perhaps next to a light salad.

ZUCCHINI AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the zucchini lengthwise in half and cut each half into very thin half moon shapes. Melt the butter in a large (preferably nonstick) skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and then add the zucchini. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and cook just until slightly tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Spread the onion and zucchini evenly over the bottom of the pan and top with the beaten eggs. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and allow it to cook until just starting to set at edges. Crumble the goat cheese evenly over the top, and put it in the oven until golden on top, about 3 to 5 minutes. Slightly cool the frittata in the pan before slicing. Serve it from the pan or invert it onto a plate, then slice and serve.
