With summer comes many of my favorite fruits, herbs, and vegetables. I have always loved experimenting with different things to do with eggs for breakfast. They are just so versitile. I have been making this for the past few days because we have herbs in our garden. The tomatoes are just starting to get red, so I can start to use good tomatoes in a few days. There is no comparison between fresh off the vine tomatoes and the ones purchased in stores. The fresh tomatoes have amazing flavor. This is my spin on a frittata for breakfast. It's easy, fast, and delicious!
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 3 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese
- 1 Tbsp. Half & Half
- 1 small tomato
- Herbs (about 2 Tbsp.)
- You can use any herbs you want. I used basil, parsley, oregano, rosemary, and tarragon.
- Salt
- Pepper
- Olive oil for pan
Crack the egg into a bowl and beat with a fork. Then add 2 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese, the half & half, salt, and pepper. Beat with a fork until well combined.
Heat a little oil in the pan. I used a 6 inch frying pan. Then add the tomato slices.
While the tomatoes are cooking, chop the herbs an add them to the egg mixture. Beat to combine.
After the tomatoes have just started to brown and are cooked, flip them over.
Add the egg mixture and allow it to cook until the egg is set around the edges but wiggles in the middle.
Easy Breakfast Frittata
Ingredients:
- You can use any herbs you want. I used basil, parsley, oregano, rosemary, and tarragon.
Instructions:
- Slice the tomatoes into slices about 1/4 in. or 1 cm.
- Crack the egg into a bowl and beat with a fork. Then add 2 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese, the half & half, salt, and pepper. Beat with a fork until well combined.
- Heat a little oil in the pan. I used a 6 inch frying pan. Then add the tomato slices.
- While the tomatoes are cooking, chop the herbs an add them to the egg mixture. Beat to combine.
- After the tomatoes have just started to brown and are cooked, flip them over.
- Add the egg mixture and allow it to cook until the egg is set around the edges but wiggles in the middle.
- Then flip the frittata. I find the best way to flip it is to slide it out of the pan and onto a plate.
- Then put the pan over the plate and flip everything over. I suggest doing this over a sink in case anything bad happens. Put the pan back on the heat.
- Sprinkle with cheese and allow the bottom to cook. Slide onto a plate and enjoy!
