Vegetable Frittata

Serves 8

Ingredients:

·      3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

·      1 large onion, thinly sliced

·      3 garlic cloves, minced

·      3 summer squash, sliced 1/4-inch thick

·      3 red peppers, cored, seeded and ribs removed, and cut into strips

·      1//2 pound sliced mushrooms

·      6 extra-large eggs

·      1/4 cup heavy cream

·      1 teaspoon kosher salt

·      1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

·      2 cups stale plain croutons, from day old French bread

·      1/2 pound (8 ounces) cream cheese, cut into small cubes

·      2 cups grated Swiss cheese

Instructions:

1.    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease a 10-inch-round, 2-inch-deep cake pan, and set aside. 

2.    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.  Add the onion, garlic, squash, red peppers, and mushrooms and sauté, stirring, until cooked, but still crisp-tender, about 20 minutes.  Remove from the heat to cool slightly.

3.    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper.  Stir the croutons until combined, then add the cream cheese and Swiss cheese and stir well again.  Stir the sautéed vegetables until completely incorporated.

4.    Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and level the top.  Bake about 1 hour, until firm.  Check at the halfway point, and if the top is browning too quickly, lay a piece of foil loosely over the top of the pan.

5.    Let stand 10 to 15 minutes to rest before serving slightly warm, when the fritatta is at its very best.Make it stand out.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
