Vegetable Frittata With Quinoa Spread
- Ingredients
- 1 cup parsnips (peeled and diced into roughly 1/2-inch cubes)
- 1 cup cauliflower, broken into florets
- 1 cup zucchini, cut into roughly 1/2 -inch slices
- 1/2 cup red plum tomato (cored and diced)
- 1/2 cup quinoa
- 4 eggs
- 2 tsp Herbs de Provence
- 2 tsp Roquefort (or other blue cheese)
- 2 cups chicken stock or vegitable stock (no MSG, low sodium)
- Heat the oven to 375u0b0F.
- Pour the chicken stock in a saucepan and add the parsnips. When parsnips are thoroughly cooked, remove them and reserve the stock.
- Add the cauliflower to the stock and cook thoroughly. Remove cauliflower and reserve the stock.
- Add the zucchini to the stock and cook thoroughly before removing.
- Heat the stock again and add the quinoa. Bring to a boil and cook about 5 minutes or until al dente. Remove the quinoa from the stock.
- Place all of the cooked vegetables, quinoa, diced tomato, herbs, and Roquefort in a large bowl. Mix until the cheese combines completely with the other ingredients.
- In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with a fork until whites and yolks are mixed.
- Add the eggs to the vegetable mixture and stir gently.
- Rub 1 tsp of butter on the bottom of a 10-inch non-stick ovenproof pan (or coat with a non-stick spray).
- Heat the pan on the stovetop. When the butter is frothy, lower the temperature to medium-low and add the frittata mixture. Cook for a few minutes and finish in the oven until done to your taste. (I like them slightly runny for the velvety texture.)
- Flip onto a plate by holding the plate upside down on top of the pan and flipping pan and plate together.
- You can brush the top of the frittata with melted butter and serve with toast.
