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.

Steps:

• Heat skillet over medium high heat, spray on cooking spray, and layer Potatoes. Season with Salt and Pepper. Cook until they start to brown. DO NOT BURN!
• 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 CHILI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. butter a 9 by 13-inch shallow baking dish. Mix flour and baking powder. Add eggs and butter, blending well. Blend in remaining ingredients. Put mixture in the prepared baking dish and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until set. Cut into squares and serve hot.

FRITTATA WITH GREENS

Steps:

• Heat a large pot of water over high heat while you stem and wash the greens in two changes of water. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, add a generous tablespoon of salt, and the greens. Blanch spinach for 30 seconds only, chard and beet greens for 1 minute, or until tender, and transfer to the ice water. Let sit for a few minutes, then drain, squeeze dry, and chop.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, and stir in the greens. Cook, stirring, for about 1 minute, until coated with oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
• Beat the eggs in a bowl, stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, freshly ground pepper to taste, the milk, and the cooked greens.
• Clean and dry your pan and return to the stove. Heat over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture, scraping every last bit out of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the frittata with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. Turn the heat down to low and cover the pan. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, shaking the pan every once in a while, until the frittata is just about set. Meanwhile, light the broiler.
• If the frittata is not quite set on the top, place under the broiler, about 3 inches from the heat, for 1 minute, watching closely, until just beginning to color on the top. Do not allow the eggs to brown too much or they'll taste bitter.
• Remove from the heat, allow to sit in the pan for 5 minutes or longer, then carefully slide out onto a platter, or cut in wedges in the pan and serve.

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,:-).
