Mixed Vegetable Frittata Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN VEGETABLE FRITTATA RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F and position a rack in the middle. Put a rimmed sheet in the oven and allow it to heat.
• In a mixing bowl, toss the bell peppers, zucchini, green onion and broccoli with a good pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (about 2 to 3 tablespoons) and toss to make sure all the veggies are well-coated in the oil.
• Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven using oven mitts. Spread the veggies on the heated pan. Return the pan to the oven and cook for 15 minutes or until the veggies are soft and somewhat charred.
• Turn the oven heat down to 400°F.
• In your mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, baking powder, milk, feta, parsley, thyme, and a good pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Fold in the roasted vegetables.
• Coat the bottom and sides of a 10-inch cast iron or oven-safe pan and warm the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Pour the egg an veggie mixture in the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the bottom of the eggs to settle.
• Transfer the pan to the heated oven and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the center of the eggs are cooked through and the center of the frittata is firm and no longer runny).
• Serve with more feta cheese and a garnish of fresh parsley.

EASY VEGETABLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with cream, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper, and the cheese.
• Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe 10-inch skillet (non-stick or a well-seasoned cast iron pan are best).
• Add the zucchini, onions, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring every once and a while until the onions are soft and the zucchini and bell peppers have a little color; about 5 minutes.
• Season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt then add the spinach. Toss the spinach around the pan until it's ever so slightly wilted and bright green.
• Turn the heat to low. Give the egg mixture another whisk then pour into the skillet. Shimmy the pan back and forth a bit to distribute the egg around the vegetables.
• When the edges of the frittata begin to set and turn lighter in color, slide the skillet into the preheated oven; about 1 minute.
• Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the eggs are barely set and the frittata trembles - like jello - when you give the pan a gentle shake. Keep an eye on it as it bakes and check the frittata a few minutes before it's supposed to be done. You are not looking for a brown top, just one that looks cooked and barely set.
• Serve the frittata hot or cold with fresh herbs on top.

MIXED VEGETABLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• *Pre-heat oven to 400º (broil).
• In medium skillet add olive oil, pesto, and garlic. Sauté on medium heat until fragrant (1-2 minutes).
• Add onions and peppers and continue to sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes.
• Next add asparagus or broccoli (potatoes should be cooked ahead of time if you want to use those).
• After 2-3 minutes, add the zucchini and mushrooms.
• When vegetables are nearly cooked, add the spinach and cook until dark green.
• Make sure the veggies are pretty much evenly distributed and flat, then pour in the egg beaters.
• Cook on stove top for about 3 minutes and then transfer to oven to cook the top portion of the egg.
• When the top begins to puff in the middle, bring back to stove top.
• Add cheese, then place under broiler for additional 2 minutes (until cheese is melted and bubbly).
• Cut into wedges and serve (this re-heats well in the microwave for leftovers).
• *NOTE - all measurements are approximate and can be changed to your preferences.

EXTRA-VEGGIE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Beat 8 eggs, 1 cup milk, chopped parsley, and salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup stuffing bread cubes and 2 cups leftover cooked vegetables (such as broccoli or cauliflower).

Reduce the heat to medium-low, top with grated cheddar and cook 10 minutes. Broil 3 minutes, then slice.

• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• In a 10-inch ovenproof saute pan, melt the butter and saute the scallions over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Add the roasted vegetables to the pan and toss with the scallions. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook for 2 minutes over medium-low heat without stirring. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake the frittata for 20 to 30 minutes, until puffed and set in the middle. Sprinkle with the Gruyere and bake for another 3 minutes, until the cheese is just melted. Cut into 6 or 8 wedges and serve hot.

ANNE WILLAN'S SUMMER VEGETABLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Prepare all vegetables as directed; set aside.
• Lightly whip eggs in a large bowl; salt and pepper to taste.
• Add the prepared vegetables and parsley and/or basil. You'll think the eggs won't hold it all, but they will.
• Melt butter in a large non-stick skillet over very low heat. Add egg mixture and cook very slowly 20-25 minutes, covered, until firm on top and lightly browned underneath.
• Loosen around edge with a spatula and shake pan to loosen bottom. If the frittata sticks on the bottom, loosen with spatula. Slide out onto a warmed plate.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with racks in upper and middle thirds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss potatoes and garlic with 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer on sheet and roast on middle rack until potatoes are golden and crisp, about 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and sour cream and season with salt and pepper. In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add onion and green beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, about 10 minutes. Add broccoli and tomato, and season with salt and pepper. Add egg mixture and stir to combine. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook, undisturbed, until edge is set, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer skillet to upper rack in oven and bake until slightly puffed and almost set, about 8 minutes. Heat broiler and broil until cheese is browned and bubbling, about 1 minute. Run a rubber spatula around edge of frittata and transfer to a plate. Cut into wedges and serve with potatoes and garlic.
