Zucchini Frittata RecipeIngredients:
4 c. finely chopped zucchini
1 small onion
8 eggs*
3/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 c. cubed fully cooked ham
**we thought that it would also be yummy to add bell peppers
  1. In a skillet saute onions and zucchini until tender.  Place in 9x9 baking dish.
  2.  In a bowl, whisk eggs, salt, and pepper; stir in cheese an ham.  Pour over zucchini mixture.
  3. Bake @ 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
*Note: original recipe slightly modified
  • The original recipes calls for 4 eggs.  However, we thought that was not enough eggs, so we doubled the eggs.
  • I also chose to bake it rather than cook it in the microwave. 
 Original Directions
  1. In a 9-in. microwave-safe pie plate, combine zucchini and onion. Microwave, covered, on high for 3-4 minutes or until tender; drain.
  2. In a bowl, whisk eggs, salt and pepper; stir in cheese and ham. Carefully pour over zucchini mixture. Microwave at 70% power for 8-9 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Yield: 4 servings.
