What make a good brunch? Hearty fare, heavy on both egg and savory flavors. My answer: A frittata.
Now, frittatas are simple to make and even simpler to exclude dairy from if you need it to be dairy-free.
I rummaged around and found the following:
- Sweet onions
- Fresh garlic
- Jalapenos
- Tomatoes
- Black olives
- Shredded zucchini
- Shredded roasted chicken
I beat six eggs (a good amount for four people eating brunch) with a couple tablespoons of water, then poured them over the filling mixture. Cook over medium heat for five minutes (or so) until the eggs are set.
Transfer the pan to a 400F oven for 10 minutes. The frittata is done when a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
If you have dairy lovers, sprinkle a small amount of cheese on the wedge. Tomatillo salsa is also a nice addition.
I served the frittata with some of my favorite homemade biscuits - made with a mixture of cornmeal and white flour.
I suppose brunch was successful...The Boy said it was the type of meal he would have paid money for. And this is what was in the kitchen afterwards:
