Heirloom Tomato Frittata
We love eggs and I just got into making frittatas this year. I was inspired to make another this morning after rejoicing, yes, REJOICING, that local heirloom tomatoes were at our farmer's market yesterday. And, they are too die for!
Nothing special here: finely chopped garlic scapes sauteed in Tuscan herb infused olive oil and spinach, pour in 5 beaten eggs. Let cook half way through, top with sliced tomatoes and broil until slightly brown on top, firm and/or eggs are NOT runny in the middle. I then garnished it with chopped cilantro.
Sweet cherries are still in season as are raspberries. I pitted the former and combined with the latter to accompany a frittata slice. It was great!

Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBrenda: we ate the last tomato today. Since we aren't gardens we have to wait for market on Saturday.
Sonja: Funny you should ask about the egg, cause as we was mixing them I mentioned to Andy that I don't know how much longer I can eat eggs. I haven't eaten red meat in over 20 years, and it's been about 17 years for other meats. I haven't taken the step to becoming vegan yet though.
