Pasta Frittata Recipe
December 5, 2012 Leave a comment
Here is a unique change to the average pasta, frittata recipe which I found at the Today’s Parent website with a few personal changes for ease:
What You Will Need:
– 2 tsp of butter
– 1 thinly sliced small zucchini
– 1 sliced green onion
– ½ tsp of basil
– ½ tsp of salt
– 2 cups of cooked pasta of your choice (when I’ve made this recipe in the past, I used penne)
– 6 whisked eggs
– ½ cup of grated cheese of your choice (for this particular recipe I usually use marble cheese)
What You Will Need to do:
1. Preheat your broiler.
2. On the stovetop over medium heat, melt butter in a medium frying pan.
3. Add zucchini, onion, basil and salt and stir-fry until zucchini is tender. This will take about 4 minutes.
4. Add the cooked pasta and stir until hot.
5. Then add eggs. Stir to disperse zucchini and pasta evenly. Allow the bottom of the egg mixture to set.
6. Then, lifting up one side of the frittata with a spatula while tilting the pan, let some of the runny egg run underneath.
7. When the entire frittata is nearly set, sprinkle with cheese. Place under the broiler until completely set, about 30 seconds.
