Categories     Quick & Easy Casserole Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed or 4 eggs
½ cup finely shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons snipped fresh flat-leaf parsley
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons olive oil
12 ounces zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
4 green onions, sliced

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, cheese, half of the parsley, the pepper and salt. Set aside.
  • In a 9- to 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini and green onions; cook 5 to 8 minutes or just until tender, stirring frequently.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Reduce heat to medium. As mixture sets, run a spatula around the edge of the skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking and lifting edges about 5 minutes or until egg mixture is almost set (surface will be moist). Reduce heat as necessary to prevent overbrowning.
  • Place the skillet in the oven. Bake about 5 minutes or until the frittata is firm and the top is golden. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons parsley. Cut into wedges. Serve warm.

Provided by Michael Chiarello : Food Network

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 small cloves garlic
Olive oil, for sauteing
1 medium zucchini
1/2 bunch basil
8 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Start by crushing some garlic and heating it in some olive oil in a medium nonstick saute pan on the stove. While that is heating up, very thinly slice the zucchini on a mandoline. When the oil and garlic are heated, tear some basil into the pan and add all the sliced zucchini. Cook until the zucchini is tender, but not cooked through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Blend eggs in a blender with a little bit of milk and some salt and pepper. Blend on the highest speed.
  • Pour the egg mixture into saute pan and let it sit for 1 minute. When there isn't much loose egg left in the pan, grate some Parmesan on top and place pan in the broiler for 1 minute.
  • Take pan out of broiler, let it cool and set in pan for 5 minutes. When cool invert a plate on top of pan and turn over. Slice and serve.

Zucchini & Cheddar Frittata Recipe image

Provided by Gina Price

Categories     Quiche

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

¾ lb (12 oz), about 2 small zucchini zucchini
2 tbsp unsalted butter
¼ cup finely chopped, from 1-2 shallots shallots
¾ tsp divided salt
6 large eggs
¼ cup heavy cream
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
3 oz (about 1 cup), grated Cheddar Cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Using a food processor or box grater, grate the zucchini. Place the grated zucchini on top of several layers of paper towels and wring dry. If necessary, repeat 1-2 times to remove any excess moisture.
  • In an 8 or 10-inch ovenproof, nonstick sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallot, zucchini and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the moisture evaporates and the zucchini is tender, 6-7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper.
  • Add the cooked zucchini and grated cheese to the egg mixture and stir to combine. Pour the frittata mixture into the pan (no need to wash it), then place in the oven and bake until set, 20-23 minutes.
  • Note: Be sure to keep a dish towel over the pan handle after you remove it from the oven; it's easy to forget that it's hot and burn your hand.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked frittata can be frozen for up to 3 months. Remove the frittata from the freezer about 24 hours prior to serving and reheat it in the microwave or, covered with foil, in a 300°F oven until hot in the center.

ZUCCHINI TOMATO PASTA FRITTATA



Zucchini Tomato Pasta Frittata image

Although the original recipe did not call for garlic, I like to add in about 1/2 tablespoon in when frying the veggies, but that is only optional of coarse. This makes a wonderful light dinner served with a side salad. If desired you can even throw in just a little cubed cooked ham or cooked bacon, but not too much as there won't be enough room for the frittata to fit into the pan. This is very good, and a great way to use up any leftover spaghetti or linguine pasta.

Time 45m

Yield 6-8 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon dried basil (to taste) or 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (to taste)

2 cups cooked pasta (use spaghetti or linguine for this)

1 cup grated mozzarella cheese (optional) or 1 cup cheddar cheese (optional)
