Jennifer Martin of Portland, Oregon, writes: "I am not formally trained in cooking but grew up working in food service, from chopping vegetables at food festivals to catering parties for a little extra income. Today I own Epicure Custom Cooking, a gourmet takeout shop and catering company with a few tables for dining. Our specials change weekly and are geared toward what I like to cook and eat. I simply love the business, even with my 12-hour days. At home when I'm not working, I'm usually cooking just for myself, and I don't have a lot of time. I love a good breakfast — when I have Saturday and Sunday mornings off — so that's why I came up with the frittata."

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

10 large eggs
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese (about 6 ounces)
10 drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1/3 cup pitted Kalamata olives, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

  1. Preheat broiler. Whisk eggs and cream in large bowl to blend. Stir in feta cheese, tomatoes, onions, basil, salt, and pepper. Melt butter in large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add egg mixture; do not stir. Cook until eggs start to firm and sides and bottom begin to brown, lifting sides occasionally to let uncooked egg run underneath, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with olives and Parmesan cheese. Transfer skillet to broiler and cook until eggs start to puff and brown, about 2 minutes. Using flexible spatula, loosen edges and bottom of frittata. Slide out onto plate. Slice frittata into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
