Artichoke and Cheese Frittata Recipe
A frittata is an egg-based dish in which you combine leftover meats, cheeses and vegetables. It is the ultimate stockpile/leftover dish. This is hubby’s version.
Making a frittata is easy! These simple step by steps on how to make a frittata – in this case an easy artichoke and cheese frittata, will have you making this easy breakfast, lunch or dinner dish in no time flat! Seriously – a frittata is a “use up the leftovers” dish that is truly simple to make!
Notes:
• You need a total of one cup of Sauteed Mushrooms, Asparagus Tips or Spinach. You can mix and match (1/3 cup each, ½ cup each of two, etc), NOT one cup of each.
• You need a total of one cup of shredded cheese. Good choices are brie, Swiss, Gouda or asiago. You can mix and match (¼ cup each, ½ cup each of two, etc), NOT one cup of each.
• You can substitute 12 ounces of egg beaters for six large eggs.
• I list this as 4 servings, but if serving to children I would say it is 4-6 servings. Depends on the appetites involved.
