ZUCCHINI FRITTATA
Steps:
- Adjust the oven rack to the upper-middle position and preheat the broiler.
- Over medium heat, heat the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick oven-proof pan. You can also use a cast iron pan.
- Add the finely minced french shallot and saute for 3-4 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally.
- Add the shredded zucchini and the chopped red pepper. Spread in a single layer and saute for 5-7 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally. The total time depends on the "wetness" of the zucchini.
- Meanwhile, in a bowl, beat together the eggs, 3 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese, mozzarella, ricotta, basil, oregano, salt and pepper with a fork. Do not overbeat.
- When the vegetables are tender, pour this egg mixture over them in the pan and stir gently to combine.
- As the mixture begins to set and the bottom firms up, use a spatula or wooden spoon to lift the edge closest to you and allow the uncooked egg mixture to run underneath. Tilt the pan as you do this.
- Continue in this fashion until the top is no longer runny and the egg mixture is almost set. It should begin to pull away from the sides.
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of grated cheese evenly over the top.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven.
- Broil for about 2-4 minutes until the center is set, dry to the touch and has just a little jiggle to it. It should be lightly browned.
- Let stand a few minutes then run a spatula around the edge and slide gently to a serving plate.
- Slice into wedges and serve it hot, at room temperature or cold.
- Optional: Garnish with extra basil or sliced green onions.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large saute pan, saute the zucchini, potatoes, mushrooms, and onions, and peppers in the butter till not raw anymore, about 3 minutes on medium flame.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
- Butter the bottom and sides of a glass 13x9 Baking dish.
- In a bowl, crack in the eggs and beat well to totally unify the yolks and whites.
- Add the fresh parsley and dill to the egg mixture and stir well.
- Add the shredded cheese to the egg mix and stir well.
- Now add the vegetable mixture and fold into the egg mixture softly, but thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the entire egg mixture into the buttered baking dish and place in the oven on center rack for 35-40 minutes.
- Start to watch the frittata after about 30 minutes to make sure it doesn't overcook in your oven (most ovens vary). You want it to be slightly golden on top, springy to touch and no evidence of runniness.
