FRITTATA WITH LEFTOVER GREENS



Frittata with Leftover Greens image

Use up leftover cooked greens (which, in my experience, don't reheat so nicely) in this delicious frittata! You can use spinach, Swiss chard, kale, etc.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 large eggs
2 large egg whites
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped red onion
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup cooked Swiss chard (thawed if frozen)
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Beat the eggs and egg whites in a mixing bowl until smooth. Whisk in the parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until evenly blended; set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook and stir until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, and cook an additional minute. Add the cooked Swiss chard; cook and stir until the Swiss chard is hot. Pour in the egg mixture, cover, and cook until the edges of the egg have set, about 5 minutes.
  • Uncover the frittata, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Broil in the preheated oven until the cheese is golden brown and the center of the frittata has set, about 2 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let stand 3 minutes before serving.

LEFTOVER PASTA FRITTATA



Leftover Pasta Frittata image

This frittata recipe answers the question of what to do with leftover pasta-or what to make when you're looking for a hearty meal. When testing different pasta types, we found that long, thin strands, such as spaghetti or linguine, are ideal because they cradled the egg nicely. We added bright cherry tomatoes, creamy mozzarella and sharp Parmesan for extra freshness and flavor.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 slices bacon (about 4.5 ounces), chopped
1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 ounces cooked pasta, such as spaghetti, linguine or bucatini
1 cup cherry tomatoes (about 7 ounces), halved
1 cup pearl-size fresh mozzarella balls (about 8 ounces), drained
8 large eggs
1/2 cup favorite tomato sauce (jarred or homemade)
1/4 cup whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the bacon in an oven-safe, medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and garlic, then continue to cook until tender, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then stir in the cooked pasta, tomatoes and half of the mozzarella, tossing until all the ingredients are well combined.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, tomato sauce, milk, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl until combined. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, then jiggle the pan to evenly distribute. Top with the Parmesan and remaining mozzarella.
  • Bake until the eggs are set and frittata is browned around the edges, about 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then invert onto a platter or cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan.

HOW-TO MAKE THE PERFECT LEFTOVERS FRITTATA



How-to Make the Perfect Leftovers Frittata image

gluten-free, nut-free, paleo, keto, Whole30, dairy-free, low FODMAP options

Time 20m

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter, ghee or olive oil
8-10* large pasture-raised eggs
⅓ cup full fat milk or coconut milk (optional, see above)
1 - 1½ cups cooked protein of your choice - bacon, sausage, shredded meat, smoked salmon, etc
cooked veggies of your choice - spinach, roasted red peppers, kale, zucchini, potatoes, etc
cheese, of your choice, optional
any other leftovers you might want to add
herbs and spices, to taste
sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Adjust your rack to the middle of the oven.
  • In a large bowl, beat together eggs and milk (if using). Don't over beat. Stir in any cooked (but not hot) ingredients that you want to add-in, veggies, meat, herbs, seasonings, etc. Mix in cheese if using and season well with sea salt and black pepper. Stir in to combine.
  • To a well-seasoned cast iron skillet, over medium-high heat add your butter (or other fat) and melt. Evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Pour the eggs into the pan, shaking the pan to evenly distribute the mixture. Add any remaining ingredients on top.
  • Cook the frittata, without stirring, until its edges begin to set, about 3-5 minutes. As it cooks, I recommend using a rubber spatula to very gently lift up the set portions of your frittata around the edge and let any egg mixture that is not set to run into the space you've created.
  • Place the frittata in the preheated oven and cook 8-10 minutes until barely set. (check after 5, to avoid overcooking). Time to cook can vary on the size (and type) of the pan, amount of eggs, how thick it is, etc. So just watch it.
  • To check, cut a small slit in the center of the frittata. If raw egg runs into the cut you made, bake for another few minutes. Once set remove from the oven, remember it will continue to cook in the hot pan. (if you are looking for a brown top or want to add cheese and melt, give it a minute under the broiler, but be REALLY careful to not overcook and dry out your frittata)
  • Allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes. Loosen the edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large round platter or serve right from the pan. Cut into wedges. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature, or cold.
