breakfast for dinner... yummy!
wow, so i just made the best fritatta ever. if you dont know what a fritatta is, its basicly like an egg pie spanish omlette thingy. i usually dont like them cause there is too much egg and not enough stuff and i dont bake it long enough and its gooey eggy in the center but this time it turned out great. there were tons of veggies and stuff in it and joben still even liked it! in case you are longing to be inspired to make a fritatta of your own heres what i did: 9 i modified a recipie i found on foodnetwork.ca...
first i put some butter and chopped onions, one shredded potatoe and two cloves of garlic in the pan to saute for about 3-4 mins.
next i threw in some chopped brocoli florettes, sliced mushrooms and finely shredded/sliced leftover chicken breast into the pan to saute with the onion-potatoe mixture for another couple of mins.
meanwhile i scrambled 8 eggs and threw in some cyanne pepper, parsley flakes, cumin and salt and fresh ground pepper in too.
next i dumped in the egg mixture and turned the heat down to low.
i let the fritatta set for about 5 mins and then put it into a 375 degree oven for about 5 mins... half way through i pulled it out and crumbled some goat cheese and sprinkled some shredded chedder and sprinkled some sliced green onions over top.
after the fritatta was nice and firm i put it on broil for 1 min to make the cheeses really mealty and bubbly.
i served this fritatta with belgium waffles with strawberry sauce and apple chedder biscuits for dinner and my husband loved it....
he might have thought it was SO great because he was watching a ncaa football game on tv while he ate his dinner and sports makes him pretty euphoric but who knows... i think it was the good food.
anyways, i havent cooked for a while so it was great to make a special breakfast for dinner meal but now i have a pile of dishes to do so i gotta go!
oh! we are moving to medicine hat tomorrow... jobens company is housing us at the ramada in madicine hat while he is traning. its going to be weird living in a hotel for the next couple of months but hey! its paid for by the company and the hotel is nicer than i expected we would be put up in... there is a nice pool and exercise room and everything so im pretty pumped. ill put up some pics of our "new place" soon. hahaha, yeah right. i WILL post a pic of my fritatta though cause its totally awesome.
