Spinach or Swiss Chard Frittata Parmesan
- 10 to 12 ounces fresh spinach or Swiss chard, well washed and stemmed
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Light olive oil
- Steam the spinach or chard in a large covered pot with only the water clinging to the leaves, until just wilted down.
- This will take about a minute for the spinach and 3 to 4 minutes for the chard; drain.
- When cool enough to handle, chop the leaves.
- Combine the eggs, spinach or chard, and Parmesan in a mixing bowl and stir together.
- Add a little salt and pepper and stir again.
- Heat just enough oil to coat the bottom of a 9-inch nonstick skillet.
- When hot, pour in the egg mixture.
- Cover and cook over medium heat until the bottom is golden brown and the top is fairly set, about 5 minutes.
- Slide the frittata out onto a plate.
- Invert the skillet over the plate and quickly flip over so that the frittata goes back into the skillet, uncooked side down.
- Remove the plate, return the skillet to the heat, and cook the second side, uncovered, until golden brown.
- Slide the frittata back onto the plate, let cool for a few minutes, cut into wedges, and serve.
