GREEN CHILE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until just browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the hash browns and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden in spots, about 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the eggs to a medium bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine, and then stir in the Cheddar and cottage cheese.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir the sausage and green chiles into the skillet to combine.
• Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is thick, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer to the oven and cook until set, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Run a rubber spatula around the edge of the skillet and slide the frittata onto a cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve with the salsa.

CHEESY GREEN CHILI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Grease an 8"x12" baking dish (I use an oval dish). (Can use 9"x13" pan but frittata will not be as thick).
• In a large bowl, beat eggs with a fork; then add flour, baking powder, salt & pepper and mix until well combined.
• Stir in the green chills, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese and butter.
• Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Garnish with tomato slices (I use 3) and chopped basil leaves.
• Bake uncovered for 15 minutes at 400 degrees. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and continue baking for about 35 minutes or until well set.
• Serve and enjoy!

REID'S FAVORITE GREEN CHILI & POTATO FRITTATA

• Lower the Heat to Medium.
• Add the scallions, green chilis, canadian bacon, and parmiggiano cheese (use a potato peeler to make thin strips). Add a bit more salt and pepper to season to your taste. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
• Add the canadian bacon.
• Drop the Cream Cheese in randomly across the pan by teaspoon full. Toss the mixture to incorporate all ingredients.
• Add Egg Substitute and Cheddar Cheese. Lower Heat to Medium Low. Cook for about 3-4 minutes while the egg begins to set on the bottom. Place the Pan in a 375 degree oven for about 10 more minutes until egg is fully set.
• Remove from the oven and serve.
• I would recommend serving with a cheddar cheese sauce, but we are trying to keep it healthy these days. Also, I'd love to try it with butter (instead of the non-stick cooking spray), real eggs, and full fat cheeses.

GREEN CHILE FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the eggs with the salt, pepper, chile powder, and cilantro. Whisk with a fork until evenly blended and set aside.
• In a 10-inch non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden. Add the red pepper and the poblano and cook for 2 minutes more. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and swirl the bottom of the pan with a fork to mix the vegetables with the eggs. Reduce the heat to medium-low, scatter the cheese over the top and cook the frittata slowly, covered, until the eggs are set almost all the way through. Shake the pan back and fourth on the burner occasionally to be sure the frittata is not sticking. Place the pan under a broiler on medium for a minute or two just to set the top of the frittata completely. Remove from the heat and let the frittata set in the pan for 10 minutes. Place a round platter on the top of the pan and invert the frittata onto it. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro and serve warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.

POTATO FRITTATA!

Steps:

• In a large oven proof skillet (10-12 inch) heat the olive oil.
• Add the onion and bacon and sauté until onions are soft. Sometimes I use leftover chunks of ham (from freezer).
• Add a generous layer of the potatoes. No need to thaw. You may not need the whole bag. Save the rest for another use. :-).
• Toss well with the oil.
• Season with the salt and pepper as well as the thyme. Toss again.
• Cook until underside turns brown.
• Turn over and brown on other side. Peek underneath with your spatula.
• Now pour your beaten eggs over the top, and lift around the edges to let some run underneath.
• When the eggs start to set on top sprinkle with the cheddar cheese (more or less depending on what you have on hand).
• Now place the skillet in your pre-heated 375°F oven and bake until cheese is melted.
• Serve in wedges with a salad. Or at breakfast with fruit. This should take no more than 30 minute total. Enjoy,:-).

• Mix together the panko crumbs and cheese.
• Top the potato gratin(s) with a sprinkle of the panko/cheese mixture. Cover with foil.
• Bake in a 375 degree oven for 1 hour. Uncover and bake for another 30 minutes, until gratin is bubbling and top is golden brown.
• I made these last week in small tins and made great left-overs to take camping. I replaced the green chilis for broccoli however in my son's portion.
