Categories     Low-Carb Casserole Recipes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons fine dry breadcrumbs
1 pound thin asparagus
1 ½ teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 onions, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt, divided
½ cup water
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
4 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
½ cup shredded Gruyère cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 10-inch pie pan or ceramic quiche dish with cooking spray. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, tapping out the excess.
  • Snap tough ends off asparagus. Slice off the top 2 inches of the tips and reserve. Cut the stalks into 1/2-inch-long slices.
  • Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, bell pepper, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add water and the asparagus stalks to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the asparagus is tender and the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes (the mixture should be very dry). Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the vegetables in an even layer in the prepared pan.
  • Whisk eggs and egg whites in a large bowl. Add ricotta, parsley, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper; whisk to blend. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, gently shaking the pan to distribute. Scatter the reserved asparagus tips over the top and sprinkle with Gruyere.
  • Bake the frittata until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

EASY BAKED FRITTATE WITH ASPARAGUS AND ASIAGO



Easy Baked Frittate with Asparagus and Asiago image

A delicious breakfast or light lunch dish, that is also easy to pack and bring to a picnic of a potluck gathering!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Yield 2-3

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 TBSP. olive oil
3-4 oz. young asparagus, trimmed
1 --- green onion, minced
4 lrg. organic eggs
4 TBSP. whole milk or half & half
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup Asiago or Fontina cheese, coarsely chopped
1 TBSP. Parmesan cheese, freshly grated (for topping)
1 TBSP. fresh parsley, minced (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Cut the tough ends of the asparagus spears and discard. Chop the remaining spears into ¼" pieces, reserving six of the tips. You should have about ¾ cup chopped asparagus.
  • In a small skillet, heat two tablespoons of the olive oil and add the asparagus and the green onion. Season with a little salt and cook for just a few minutes to soften the asparagus. Remove from the heat and allow them to cool.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk or cream, and the salt and pepper in a large measuring cup until well blended (this will make the pouring easier).
  • Brush all six cups of a regular muffin tin generously with the remaining olive oil. If you have a non-stick one muffin tin, all the better.
  • Divide the asparagus and onion mixture evenly among the 6 muffin cups. Add the Asiago cheese on top of the vegetables. Next, pour the egg and milk mixture over the filling in each cup as evenly as possible, about two-thirds of the way from the top. Add the asparagus tips to top each muffin.
  • Bake until the egg mixture puffs up and is soft but set in the center, about 15 minutes or so. Do not overcook them (the color of the egg custard should not be brown.)
  • Sprinkle the top with some Parmesan cheese and allow them to sit for a few minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittate from the muffin cups and slide them onto a serving platter. Sprinkle with some fresh parsley and serve immediately.

POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA



Potato and Onion Frittata image

This dish is based on the classic omelet of Spain, tortilla española. In the authentic dish, the potatoes are fried, and most recipes call for copious amounts of oil. In this version, I steam the potatoes to cut down on oil and use a waxier variety of potato with a lower glycemic index. Waxier potatoes also have a better texture when steamed instead of fried.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, lunch, weekday, appetizer, side dish

Time 8m

Yield Serves 10 as a tapa

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound boiling potatoes, peeled if desired and cut in small dice (1/2 to 3/4 inch)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow or red onion, finely chopped
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste (about 3/4 teaspoon)
6 large eggs

Steps:

  • Steam the potatoes until tender, about eight minutes, and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet, and add the onions and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about five minutes. Add the potatoes to the pan, and toss together gently so that the potatoes don't break apart. Season generously with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
  • Beat the eggs in a bowl, and add 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of freshly ground pepper. Stir in the potatoes and onions.
  • Return the pan to the stove, and heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Drizzle in a drop of egg; when it sizzles and cooks at once, scrape the eggs and vegetables back into the pan. Shake the pan gently while you lift the edges of the frittata, and tilt the pan to let egg run underneath and set. When the bottom of the frittata has set, turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Cook gently for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the broiler.
  • Uncover the pan, and slide under the broiler for a minute or two (watch closely) to set the top. Remove from the heat. Let the tortilla set in the pan for a few minutes, then slide out onto a serving plate. Allow to cool to room temperature, and cut into small diamonds to serve as hors d'oeuvres.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: Use young, tender asparagus, waxy potatoes, and sweet onions for the best flavor.
  • Cut the vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of fry, resulting in a soggy frittata.
  • Cook the frittata over medium heat: This will help prevent the bottom from burning while the center cooks through.
  • Don't flip the frittata: Frittata is a delicate dish, and flipping it can cause it to fall apart. Instead, finish cooking it in the oven.
  • Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help it hold its shape.
