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 🙂
