Veggie Frittata

 

This is an easy dish to prepare for any meal, and a really good way to use up produce that is in your refrigerator!  On this occasion I used asparagus, mushrooms, onion and green pepper, but you can use any vegetable according to your taste!

I start by adding olive or grape seed oil to the cast iron skillet and then add the veggies along with garlic salt and pepper (to taste), and saute over medium high heat until they are crisp tender.

While the vegetables are cooking, I mix the eggs, cream cheese, parmesan cheese and milk in the food processor.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the veggies, and then add the additional cheese.  

Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Puff Pancake With Fruit

This is a fast and delicious recipe that you can make for any meal!  Start by melting 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.

Mix together eggs, whole milk, sour cream, honey, flour, old fashioned oats and salt with a hand mixer or food processor.

Pour the batter into the hot cast iron skillet.

Add to the batter 1-2 cups of your choice of fruit.  (In the picture below, I used raspberries and blackberries, the pancake pictured at the top of this post, was made with blueberries and sliced strawberries.)  I also added 2 slices of crispy bacon that was crumbled over the top of the pancake.

Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
