Egg and Cheese Frittata
We have some long busy days, by the time we get home the last thing I feel like doing is cooking. This is a easy, quick, and nutritious dish that can also use up some of those leftovers you have in the fridge.
Preheat oven to 425*In a 9 - 12'' oven safe saute` pan over medium-high heat, cook the Broccoli in Olive Oil until soft and very lightly browned, about 5 - 8 minutes. Add Garlic and saute` another 2 - 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk eggs with Parmesan, Mozzarella, Ham and Pepper. Set aside.After Broccoli/Garlic is soft and cooked through, add egg/cheese mixture and let cook 30 seconds over high heat. Transfer the pan to the heated oven and let the Frittata cook until the eggs are just set, about 25 - 30 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven and turn the Frittata out with a rubber spatula onto a serving plate. Cut it like a pie and serve it up! Protein, veggies, dairy ~ Dinner's done!
