TOMATO AND SPINACH FRITTATA



Tomato and Spinach Frittata image

There are lots of Spinach, Tomato recipes but when I checked this one is a little different. I threw it together and liked the result. I say it is for 2 but that is if it is served with a salad and a roll. Hope you enjoy it. I like lite Havarti but use your favorite cheese. The hot spice is optional but it does give some pep to the recipe. An 8" pie plate works but it needs to have at least 1 1/2 " sides. I used an 8" x 6" casserole dish. I used adobo chili pepper for my "Hot" spice.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, ripe tomatoes: Flavorful and juicy tomatoes are essential for a delicious frittata. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have no blemishes.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: A combination of cheeses, such as mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan, adds richness and flavor to the frittata. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheeses to create your own unique flavor combinations.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs in a frittata should be cooked through but still slightly soft and moist. Overcooking will make the frittata dry and rubbery.
  • Add your favorite vegetables: Spinach is a classic addition to a tomato frittata, but you can also add other vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
  • Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature: A frittata can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great option for a picnic or potluck.

Conclusion:

A tomato and spinach frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences.
