Frittata,
If your like me, when you make a pasta dish, you always have leftover noodles.
Instead of wasting those noodles, turn them into a delicious and easy breakfast or dinner meal.
I was watching, Trisha Yearwood’s Southern Cooking Show, and during a commercial this lady made Frittata, with left over spaghetti noodles. It looked so delicious and easy thought I would try it. I made spaghetti carbonara yesterday and had quite a lot of leftover pasta.
Ingredients:
leftover pasta (I had 4 cups)
1/2 onion
5 eggs
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
2 garlic cloves
1/2 tbsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup cheese (parmesan or mozzarella)
1 to 2 tbsp olive oil
1 tomato
1/2 red pepper
1 tbsp white pepper
Cast iron skillet (or other sauté pan that can go in the oven)
Pre-heat oven to 425 degreesHeat up the pan with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil. Add the onion, red pepper flakes, and garlic to the pan. Cook until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Then add the tomatoe and red pepper, until some of the juice comes out of the tomatoe.
Let simmer for 2-3 minutes. Toss the pasta in and let it all mix together for 1-2 minutes.
Mix together the eggs,cream, cheese, and white pepper.Pour the egg mix into the pan, do not stir.
Mix together the eggs,cream, cheese, and white pepper.Pour the egg mix into the pan, do not stir.
Let the eggs cook for a 5-6 minutes. The edges will start getting firm, middle will still be gooey.
Place seasonings on top if you want. I
added oregano, rosemary, parsley and spinach.
Bake for 7-10 minutes.
Let cool! It can served for dinner or breakfast the next day!We added a little Sriracha to it and it was so tasty!
Enjoy!!
