Quinoa And Goat Cheese Frittata Recipes

MAKE A VEGETABLE AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA IN 25 MINUTES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Combine eggs, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.
• Heat oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add mushrooms; sauté 6 minutes. Add bell peppers and broccoli; cook 5 minutes or until tender. Remove pan from heat; pour egg mixture over vegetable mixture in pan. Sprinkle with goat cheese.
• Bake at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes or until egg is set. Cut into 4 wedges; top evenly with avocado and pico de gallo.

QUINOA AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Beat the eggs and cream together in a mixing bowl until well blended. Set aside.
• Combine the quinoa and sun-dried tomatoes in a separate bowl and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, 2 minutes. Add the scallions and cook 1 minute longer.
• Using a slotted spoon add the spinach and scallions to the quinoa mixture and combine well.
• Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove over medium heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and once melted, swirl to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Pour in the eggs and cook undisturbed for 1 minute.
• Remove the pan from the heat and carefully spoon the quinoa-spinach mixture evenly over the eggs. Top with the crumbled goat cheese and bake just until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges for serving.

MINI FRITTATAS WITH QUINOA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 6 muffin cups.
• Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Combine cooked quinoa, eggs, egg whites, zucchini, Swiss cheese, ham, parsley, Parmesan cheese, and white pepper in a large bowl and mix until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture to the top of each prepared muffin cup.
• Bake in preheated oven until the edges of frittatas are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool at least 5 minutes in the pan before serving. Serve hot or cold.

SPINACH, BACON, AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F or preheat the broiler to medium-high. Heat the oil in a 9-inch nonstick ovenproof frying pan over medium heat. Add the pancetta or bacon and saute until golden, then remove with a slotted spoon; set aside. Add the shallots to the pan, lower the heat, and cook gently for about 10 minutes, until soft but not colored. Add the spinach and stir until just wilted, then remove from the heat.
• Lightly beat the eggs in a bowl, then stir in the pancetta or bacon, spinach and shallots, grated cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Put the frying pan back over low heat, pour in the egg mixture, and cook gently, without stirring, letting the eggs set slowly from the bottom up. After about 5 minutes, give the pan a little shake: the bottom half of the frittata should be set, with a layer of wet egg still on top.
• Dot the goat cheese over the top. If you're baking the frittata, place it in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, until just set. Or put the frittata under the broiler, ideally not too close to the heat, for about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly (or completely) before slicing and serving.
