Frittata

Italian favorite, very versatile, easy to make.

Follow this link to the recipe:
Frittata
  • 1 tsp butter
  • ½ medium onion, diced
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1 small avocado, chopped
  • cheddar cheese for topping (optional)
Night before:
Melt butter in non- stick skillet.  Sauté onions until just translucent.  Turn off and go to bed.

Next morning:
Beat eggs until well mixed.  Turn heat on under skillet, and when onions begin to bubble, pour in eggs.  Cook on low heat until nearly set, then sprinkle with tomatoes and onions.  Flip frittata (if you can, it always ends up a mess for me) or turn in pieces.  Serve when just firm.  Use cheese to top or to hide mess of trying to flip over.
  
NOTES: 
  •   There are all sorts of other things you can add to this – chopped ham, green onions, basil, prosciutto, mushrooms (sauté with onions), chives.  Let your imagination be your guide.
