Italian Easter Frittata image

This Easter breakfast frittata has been a family tradition going back many generations from Italy. You probably want to make several at a time because they are time-consuming, but well worth it! Slice as you would a pie and enjoy right away, or cover with aluminum foil and freeze in a freezer bag until needed (that's why I make 4 at a time). Serve with fruit or tomatoes.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup grated farmer's cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 ½ cups cooked crumbled Italian sausage
¾ cup chopped hard salami
½ cup chopped pepperoni
1 ½ cups ricotta cheese
11 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place farmer's cheese in 1 bowl and mozzarella cheese in a separate bowl.
  • Combine sausage, salami, and pepperoni in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat; cook and stir until warmed, about 5 minutes. Stir ricotta cheese into meat mixture until melted and stringy, about 5 minutes. Stir farmer's cheese and mozzarella cheese into meat mixture until warmed, about 5 minutes.

I can't wait to try this frittata with different vegetables. I think it would be great with roasted red peppers or spinach.

Overall, I thought this frittata was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The eggs in this frittata were a bit overcooked for my taste. I think I would cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.

I found this frittata to be a bit too oily. I think I would use less olive oil next time.

This frittata was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

This frittata was a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some broccoli, zucchini, and mushrooms in the fridge, and they all worked perfectly in this dish.
