Frittata:
- Cup of cooked vegetables (mushrooms, broccolli, cauliflower are my favorite)
- 2-3 eggs, depending on size of small saute pan.
- Parmesan cheese (1-2 tablesppons)
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar/jack cheese
- salt and pepper
- tablespoon of corn/canola/oive oil
Preheat your toaster oven (broil) and saute pan w/ oil. Whisk up the eggs, sall and pepper and pour it into saute. Don't stir it. The eggs should have cooked on the bottom but is still very liquidy on top. Add your vegetables, distributing them even througout the pan (DO NOT STIR IT IN!). Then top w/ the cheeses.. Now transfer the toaster oven to finish cooking. It is okay to leave the door open and let the handle of the saute pan stick out. When the cheese melts and becomes bubbly...the eggs are done. Careful, it can go from done to burned very quickly...watch it (another reason to keep the oven door open..you can see it better.) Enjoy!
