Frittata Primavera

Italian-style omelet with fresh vegetables, mushrooms and a touch of parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Sauté garlic, mushrooms, asparagus and bell pepper in olive oil in a medium large skillet for about 4 minutes. Add scallions and sauté another minute.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix eggs with a fork until just blended. Add a tablespoon of water, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and basil.
  3. Pour egg mixture over vegetables in skillet. Cook for approximately 4-6 minutes, lifting edges and tilting skillet to allow uncooked eggs to go underneath.
  4. Cook until just set. Finish under the broiler for about 1 minute to brown the top a little.
  5. Cool for about 5 minutes then cut into 6 wedges.
  6. Serve warm or room temperature.

This is so bizarre - we must be on the same wavelength, as I shared a recipe just like this on Saturday, but used spinach instead of basil and parmesan cheese, and also used less eggs (4). That's what is so great about frittatas - you can add whatever you like and omit what you don't want...swiss and ham is yummy too!
