Broccoli Cheddar Frittata

Absolutely tasty!

Hello there, dear meows!

Eggs aren’t just for the mornings… I enjoy a good breakfast type brunch, lunch or dinner. This one’s really quick, simple, and easy. It’s a lovely way to use up any vegetables, meats, and cheeses you might have as well!

So what is a frittata, no one asked? 😹 It’s an Italian style egg dish, similar to an omelette or a crustless quiche. Frittata means “to fry” since it’s either cooked completely on the stove or then finished in the oven.

Broccoli Cheddar Frittata

I first sautéed the broccoli in some butter and olive oil, along with a bit of diced onions. I used fresh broccoli along with the stems and leaves ( a shame that most discard. The leaves are wonderful and the stems once peeled a little are tender and delicious )

I seasoned with garlic powder, my Adobo spice blend from my brand http://mysticseasonings.com and just as the vegetables start to become tender, I added shredded cheddar cheese to the pan so the cheese begins to melt and become crispy almost like a chip to create the base, and give it texture and depth of flavor.

The salad on top was divine!

Then I scrambled 3 eggs and added them to the pan. I was using a small saute pan which I forgot to mention, to keep the frittata a bit more on the thicker side. Then I sprinkled even more cheddar cheese on top and continued to cook the eggs until set.

I enjoy a good salad with a frittata so I opted for some baby arugula and ripe cherry tomatoes tossed in olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper and topped with little pieces of goat cheese. I wanted everything to compliment each other and that they did! With some buttered toast? Heaven!

Voila!

And there you have it, meows! Another Mystic Meals dish that’s ready in under 30 minutes and is excellent for those days & nights when you don’t quite know what to make, but still want something comforting and fresh. I hope you get to make some soon! Until we eat again… Bone mash the beef! 😝

Cheers, hugs, and meows!
