Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, cream, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper together in a large bowl until smooth. Fold in the broccoli, ham, Cheddar and Monterey Jack until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into an oven-safe, 10-inch nonstick skillet. Bake until the eggs are just set and no longer jiggly in the middle, 50 to 55 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before sliding the frittata out of the skillet onto a serving platter. Slice into wedges to serve.
BROCCOLI AND CHEDDAR FRITTATA
Steps:
- Separate 4 of the eggs, putting the whites into a medium sized bowl and discarding the yolks (or saving them for another purpose). Add the remaining 4 whole eggs and 2 tablespoons of water to the whites and whisk well.
- In a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet heat the oil over a medium flame. Add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and a few turns of pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet covering them evenly. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let cook until the egg mixture has set around the edges but is somewhat liquid in the middle, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese.
- Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Place the skillet under the broiler about 2 inches from the heat until the surface is set and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook or the egg mixture will become tough.
- Cut the frittata into 8 wedges and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your frittata.
- Don't overcook the eggs. They should be cooked through, but still soft and fluffy.
- Be creative with your fillings. You can add almost anything to a frittata, so feel free to experiment with different flavors and textures.
- Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature. It's also delicious the next day, so you can make it ahead of time for a quick and easy meal.
