LOADED BAKED FRITTATA



Loaded Baked Frittata image

Sautéed onion, pepper and spinach lace this sturdy frittata that's as good warm out of the pan as it is cold. Bacon and goat cheese enrich the mix, which can be eaten alone or put in a sandwich (see tip below). This recipe is, of course, delicious as is, but you can also take a cue from one of our commenters, Joan, who made this with leftover peppers and onions, adding sliced roasted baby potatoes. Ready in 45 minutes, it lasts for up to three days in the refrigerator, so you can enjoy it as long as it lasts - which may not be very long.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup finely diced bacon
1 cup diced onion (from 1 small onion)
2 cups diced red or orange bell peppers (from 2 peppers)
1 (5-ounce) package baby spinach
4 ounces fresh goat cheese

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.

Easy Baked Frittate with Asparagus and Asiago image

A delicious breakfast or light lunch dish, that is also easy to pack and bring to a picnic of a potluck gathering!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Yield 2-3

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 TBSP. olive oil
3-4 oz. young asparagus, trimmed
1 --- green onion, minced
4 lrg. organic eggs
4 TBSP. whole milk or half & half
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup Asiago or Fontina cheese, coarsely chopped
1 TBSP. Parmesan cheese, freshly grated (for topping)
1 TBSP. fresh parsley, minced (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Cut the tough ends of the asparagus spears and discard. Chop the remaining spears into ¼" pieces, reserving six of the tips. You should have about ¾ cup chopped asparagus.
  • In a small skillet, heat two tablespoons of the olive oil and add the asparagus and the green onion. Season with a little salt and cook for just a few minutes to soften the asparagus. Remove from the heat and allow them to cool.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk or cream, and the salt and pepper in a large measuring cup until well blended (this will make the pouring easier).
  • Brush all six cups of a regular muffin tin generously with the remaining olive oil. If you have a non-stick one muffin tin, all the better.
  • Divide the asparagus and onion mixture evenly among the 6 muffin cups. Add the Asiago cheese on top of the vegetables. Next, pour the egg and milk mixture over the filling in each cup as evenly as possible, about two-thirds of the way from the top. Add the asparagus tips to top each muffin.
  • Bake until the egg mixture puffs up and is soft but set in the center, about 15 minutes or so. Do not overcook them (the color of the egg custard should not be brown.)
  • Sprinkle the top with some Parmesan cheese and allow them to sit for a few minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittate from the muffin cups and slide them onto a serving platter. Sprinkle with some fresh parsley and serve immediately.
