The other day Mark was giving me a bad time that I had so few recipes on the blog. So in an effort to make him happy I decided to post some of my favorite breakfast dishes. One of the B's in B&B does stand for breakfast!
A Frittata is an Italian omelette that is baked in the oven. Some call it crust less quiche which is also especially correct. The following is the one I make regularly. You can substitute and fillings you like just watch that your choices don't add to much liquid to the mix.
Preheat oven to 375 F
Ingredients:
6 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
garlic, fresh basil, oregano, salt and fresh ground pepper ( don't be shy with the seasonings)
1/2 cup grated cheese blend - I tend to use mozza, provolone and cheddar but you can use what ever your tastes run to
crumbled bacon, chopped cooked spinach, diced onion, diced tomato equaling about 1 1/2 cups
procedure:
whip eggs and cream together then add remaining ingredients. Spray or grease an oven proof casserole dish big enough that the mixture will fill 1/2 to 2/3 full but make sure the pan not more than 2 1/2 inches deep. ( the Frittata will take too long to bake and become too brown on top otherwise)
Bake until the center is just set anywhere from 30 - 45 mins.
Serve with hash browns or if brunch a nice greens and tomato salad.
