Hey everyone and happy Hump Day! Every Sunday I love making dinner for my family and I hate to brag but it turned out pretty darn good this past weekend! I made frittata with rosemary garlic home fries. I followed a tried and true recipe for the frittata but I freestyled the potatoes with lots of butter, herbs, fresh garlic, onions, and romano cheese and it turned out SO yummy. I posted a status on Facebook about my dinner and some of my friends expressed interest in getting their hands on the recipe for the frittata, so I thought I would post it for the world today! This recipe is from the Broccoli Forest cookbook and it’s excellent if you can find a copy of your own:

Ingredients:

• 2 tbs olive oil (you might need additional oil or butter when sauteing the veggies)
• 1 tbs melted butter
• 1 small onion, minced
• 1 small clove garlic, minced (I usually use 6 cloves in mine)
• 1/2 tsp salt, basil, oregano
• 1/4 tsp thyme, rosemary
• freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 5-6 mushrooms, sliced
• 1 small zucchini, sliced
• 1 small bunch or spinach, swiss chard, or kale chopped
• 1 small green bell pepper
• 5 large eggs, well beaten
• grated mozzarella cheese
• grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. In a large cast-iron skillet, cook the onion and garlic with salt and herbs in combined olive oil and butter for 5-8 minutes
2. Add remaining vegetables and cook over medium high heat until the vegetables are tender for 8-10 minutes
3. Turn the heat way up and pour in the beaten eggs. Cook on the stove-top for several minutes, lifting the edges, and letting the uncooked egg flow underneath the cooked egg (as you would for an omelet). Turn the heat back to medium as you do this.
4. As soon as the egg appears set, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top and then top it off with the parmesan. Place it in the oven at 350 for 12-15 minutes (until it’s firm and the cheese is melted and slightly brown).

This recipe is one of my family’s favorites and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! One again, it’s from the Broccoli Forest cookbook and it really is great, especially if there’s any vegetarians in your family. What is your favorite thing to cook for dinner? Do you have a primarily vegetarian cookbook that you would recommend? I wanna hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

PS: Sorry for the lack of pictures of the frittata – it was completely devoured before I got around to snapping some pics!
