Eggs, Eggs, Eggs...

So we have eggs running out our of ears. Yesterday we got almost 3 dozen eggs. We are selling quite a few but they are still piling up on us. I have decided to start cooking at least one egg dish for supper each week. I am looking for recipes that use a lot of eggs. If I cook breakfast for supper, which I do on occasion, I only use 3 or 4 eggs and that just isn't enough.

Last night I made a Fritata and we really enjoyed it. This was the first time I had ever made one.





Here is the recipe:

4 Tbsp. olive oil
3 medium sized potatoes, shredded (or you could use frozen hash browns)
1/2 pound ham, diced
1/2 package frozen spinach (squeeze out liquid)
12 eggs, raw, scrambled
1 1/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Heat olive oil in oven proof skillet. Saute potatoes for about 5 minutes. Add ham and saute for 2 more minutes. Add spinach and stir well. Add eggs. Do not stir. Cook until eggs start to bubble a little. Top with cheese. Place in a 350° pre-heated oven and bake until eggs are set and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let sit for a couple of minutes.



Since I did this from scratch, I really didn't measure so this is loosely what I did.  I think next time I will remove it from the pan since the pan continued to cook and the eggs on the bottom got a little over done by the time we were done eating.

Have a great day!
