Mixed Greens Frittata Recipes

MOSTLY GREENS FRITTATA

Steps:

• Melt butter in an 8-inch cast-iron skillet. Add garlic; cook until soft, 1 minute. Add spinach; heat through. Season whisked eggs with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook, pushing eggs into center to create curds, until almost set, 3 minutes. Sprinkle with Gruyere. Bake at 400 degrees until set and golden, 12 minutes.

FRITTATA WITH LEFTOVER GREENS

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.

MIXED GREENS FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a large broiler-proof nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over moderate heat. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add the greens and cook, stirring often for 7 minutes or until very tender.
• Transfer the greens to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
• In a food processor, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, Parmesan, flour and salt.
• Add the remaining oil to the skillet and heat over moderate heat.
• Add the greens, pour the egg mixture over and cook without stirring for 10 minutes or until the eggs are set around the edges and slightly wobbly in the center.
• Preheat the broiler. Broil the frittata 6 inches from the heat for 1 minute or until the center is just set.

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.
