Frittata

A healthy morning favorite for my family is this yummy frittata. It is very easy to make and the best part is, you can practically use any vegetables or meat you have on hand to throw in there. I am a vegetarian and my husband is not. Sometimes I make a meat version but on this day I decided to just keep it a veggie frittata. You could easily make this with meat any meat inside (if it is a raw meat such as sausage brown it in a pan before adding it to the dish). My husband loves this dish so much I didn't even have time to snap a picture of the complete dish before he had already served himself a plate.

Easy Frittata

Ingredients:
    Eggs (1 whole egg, 3 egg whites)
    Shredded cheese- 1/4 cup (I used a cheddar Colby blend)
   Peppers- 1/2 red, yellow, green
   onion -1/2
   tomato- 1/2
   squash- 1/2 small
   zucchini 1/2 small
   salt
   pepper
   1 tablespoon milk

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  2. Oil medium size baking dish and set aside
  3. chop all of your vegetables and place in a large bowl
  4. Add cheese
  5. in a separate bowl whisk 1 whole egg, 3 egg whites together, and 1 tablespoon milk together.
  6. pour egg mixture in the veggie bowl and mix add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. pour mixture in pan 
  8. bake in preheated over for about 25-35 minutes (it is done when the middle is firm to the touch and does not jiggle.)  
We made this over the weekend and as usual my 2 little helpers were busy helping me in the kitchen. I have found if they help me make it they are more likely to eat it. I hope you all enjoy this as much as we did/do. You can also cut the rest of all of the other vegetables and then put them in a freezer bag and put them in the freezer and use next time.
