Summer Vegetable Fritatta
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 whole Zucchini, Chopped
- 1- 1/2 cup Baby Portabella Mushrooms (or White Button Mushrooms)
- 1 cup Asparagus, Tops Only
- 1/2 stalks Leeks
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 10 whole Large Eggs
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Basil, Finely Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cracked Pepper
- 1/4 cups Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
- Pre-heat oven to 350.
- In a large non-stick and oven safe skillet saute the veggies in the olive oil over medium high heat until they are soft.
- You will probably be thinking... wow thats a lot of veggies, how will 10 eggs fit in here?
- Fret not, they will shrink around 30% as you saute.
- Add the salt halfway through the cooking time and then reduce the heat to low.
- Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a medium mixing bowl.
- Stir in the basil and cracked pepper.
- Once the veggie goodness in the skillet has cooled down a bit, pour the egg mixture over top and gently stir to evenly incorporate the veggies.
- You must do this quickly, or youll end up with scrambled eggs.
- Once youve stirred once or twice, just leave the frittata alone.
- Continue cooking over low heat for 3-4 minutes or until you can see the sides beginning to set up.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 8 minutes.
- Remove the skillet and sprinkle the grated cheese over top.
- Return to the oven to cook for 2-4 more minutes.
- It should be completely set, but still a bit wobbly in the middle.
- Let the whole frittata sit on the stove top for 5-7 minutes and then slice into 6 wedges.
