Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking pan with foil.
- Toss the tomatoes with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Arrange the tomatoes on the prepared baking pan cut-side up and roast until they are slightly shrunken and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then remove the skins and cut each tomato in half lengthwise.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
- Whisk the eggs, half-and-half and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl. Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Grate the garlic over the oil and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the eggs and distribute the tomatoes and the mozzarella evenly. Cook on the stove until the bottom and edges are just starting to set, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until just set in the center, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Let stand at least 5 minutes. The frittata can be served warm or at room temperature.
MOZZARELLA-STUFFED TOMATOES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cut the tops off the tomatoes and, using a spoon, hollow out the middle. In a medium bowl, combine the mozzarella, bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, oregano, and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place the stuffing in the tomatoes, taking care not to pack them too tight. Place on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Roast for 30 minutes.
STUFFED SPAGHETTI FRITTATA WITH TOMATO & MOZZARELLA
Steps:
- Cook, drain and toss the spaghetti with butter, cheese, and parsley. Make sure the pasta is cooked al dente--more underdone--as it will continue to cook in later stages. Put the olive oil and onion into a small saucepan and turn the heat to medium. Cook and stir the onion until it becomes colored a golden brown, then add the cut-up drained tomatoes and salt. Cook for about 20 minutes until the oil floats free of the tomato. Take off the heat. When the tomatoes have cooled, mix in the diced mozzarella. Tip the pan and spoon off most of the oil. Add the tossed sauced spaghetti, salt and a few grindings of pepper to the beaten egg, mixing thoroughly to distribute the egg evenly over the pasta. Put the 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet, turn the heat on to medium and when the butter foam begins to subside, but before it darkens, but in just half the pasta and egg mixture, spreading it uniformly over the bottom of the pan. Over it, pour the tomato and mozzarella from the saucepan, spreading it evenly, and stopping a little short of the frittata's edge. Pour in the remaining half of the spaghetti and egg mixture and cover the frittata in the pan, spreading it out to the edges. Cook the frittata on top of the stove for 3 to 4 minutes without touching the pan. Then tilt the plan slightly bringing its edge closer to the flame of the burner. Keep the pan in this position for about 1 minute, then rotate it a shade less than a full quarter turn, always keeping it tilted so that its edge is close to the flame. Repeat the procedure until you have come full circle. Take a look at the underside of the frittata, lifting the edge gently with a spatula, to make sure it has formed a fine, golden crust all around; if it has not, cook a little longer where needed. Run the pan under the broiler until the top has formed a lightly colored crust. When ready, loosen the frittata with a spatula, slide it onto a platter, and cut it into serving wedges, like a pie.

Steps:
- Beat the eggs together in a large bowl, add the mozzarella cubes, the milk and the parsley and season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

- Carefully slide the Frittata back into the hot pan with the cooked side on top and the uncooked side underneath.
- Shake the frying pan to settle the contents and cook for a further 3 or 4 minutes.
- Slide the frittata out of the pan on to a clean serving plate and serve hot or cold.
PASTA FRITTATA
This dish is one recipe calling for leftover pasta that is actually worth planning for. It's portable, it's endlessly versatile, and it's practically foolproof. Substitute almost any cheese for the Parmesan (or leave it out altogether) and toss in any cooked vegetable or meat. Make it your own. One last bit of advice from Mr. Bittman: "The key to extreme enjoyment is to make sure that some ends of pasta pieces protrude from the top of the mixture when you put it in the oven. They will become crunchy, giving the leftover pasta yet one more pleasant dimension."

Steps:
- If using leftover cooked pasta, chop it up. If using dried pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook pasta until barely tender, somewhat short of where you would normally cook it. Drain, and immediately toss it in a wide bowl with half the butter or oil. Cool it a bit.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put remaining butter or oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, and turn heat to medium-high. If you are using meat, add it, and cook, stirring occasionally until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. (If not using meat, proceed.)
- In large bowl, combine pasta with remaining ingredients, along with salt and pepper (less salt if you are using meat). Pour into skillet, and turn heat to medium-low. Use a spoon if necessary to even out top of frittata. Cook undisturbed until mixture firms up on bottom, then transfer to oven. Bake just until top is set, about 10 minutes. Remove, and serve hot or at room temperature.
