Easy Frittata Brunch Recipe

This Frittata recipe saved me these past months.  Let me correct that Paella and Frittata were the most cooked dishes while we were waiting for our kitchen.   If I remember correctly the last time I prepared Paella was in July.  (I mean wow that was a whole lot of seafood and rice).   But Frittata on the other hand is a completely different story.  It’s a simple and versatile recipe made with ingredients. that I had in the fridge vegetables and various kinds of cheese.  For this Frittata recipe, I used goat cheese in the filling a bit of grated greek smoked cheese, which enhanced the taste, and parmesan cheese for that slight saltiness.

Now,  you might be wondering what is a Frittata.  A Frittata is an egg bake with veggies.  Some same frittata and Quiche are similar.  I don’t see it, so here’s what I know to prepare a Quiche you need a pie crust.  To prepare a frittata you need a skillet.  Of course, the ingredients may be slightly similar but in a quiche, you need to add some kind of cream for stability.  Where actually do we add cream to a Frittata?

We always drive to Greece and so on our way back at the end of September we stopped off at a small town which is nestled in the Pindos mountains called Metsovo.  If you’ve never heard of this town you can google it.  It’s a beautiful town with views that are just breathtaking and this town is well known for its cheeses and the unique way they grill meat.  I bought Mestovitiko Smoked Cheese and Greek Parmesan cheese.  Yep, your read it correctly they make Parmesan Cheese and I have to admit it is quite good. 🙂

So, if you are looking to make a quick breakfast, brunch, or dinner give this Frittata recipe a go. Nowadays we eat breakfast for dinner, lunch for breakfast, dinner for lunch hehehehe which personally I love!!

Till next time 🙂
