Fritatta

I love fritattas.  Super easy to make.  You can do it for a quick, everyone eats at the same time breakfast... or you can make it for a hectic, get the kids to Kung Fu on time dinner.

It's a tasty way to eat your veg...

 
Fritatta

Note- you don't need a recipe for this, you can really easily experiment.

8 eggs
1/2 cup of grated cheese (we used parmesan and swiss)
1/2 cup cubed ham
1 head of broccolini (chopped, including some of the stems)
2 leeks, sliced into rounds (white parts and light green only)
3 cloves of garlic, minced
3 leaves of mustard greens, cut in ribbons
2 Tbs butter
Salt & Pepper

Melt the butter over medium in a pan that can go into your oven.  Add all veg except the greens.  Add the ham.  Cook until softened and getting browned.  In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, cheese, and salt & pepper.  Add the greens and mix in.  Pour the egg mixture over the veg mixture.

Smooth the eggs out over the top.  Cook for a couple minutes until the eggs are starting to set around the sides of the pan.  Finish by baking in a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes until a fork inserted in the center comes out clean (or just cheesy).

Be really careful taking that pan out of the oven.  I still have a scar from a fritatta incident a couple of years ago.
