Zucchini Fritata

When I had a ton of zucchini from my garden a couple of years ago, I was begging for zucchini recipes. My Aunt Wini sent this to me. I really like it.

2 cups chopped or shredded zucchini
1 onion chopped
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
5 beaten eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 ½ cups of Bisquick
Parsley, garlic, salt & pepper to taste
(Optional: add any other veggies you like: tomato, mushroom, etc)

Mix well and pour into 8 or 9” square pan.  Bake at 375 for 55 minutes.

Baked Denver Omelet

This is a family favorite, especially if we have company for the weekend. Or great for an office breakfast gathering, as it's easy to warm in the microwave (bake in a microwave-safe dish).
  • 8 eggs
  • ½ c half and half
  • 1 c (4oz.) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 c finely chopped fully cooked ham ( I found that deli-style ham works best--otherwise heavy chunks of ham fall to the bottom. I have also made it vegetarian by omitting the ham.)
  • ¼ c finely chopped green pepper
  • ¼ c finely chopped onion
  • ½ t salt
  • ¼ t pepper
  • (feel free to throw it other favorite options: tomatoes, scallions, mushrooms, spinach, etc.)
Directions
1.    In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cream until light. Stir in the cheese, ham, green pepper and onion.
2.    Pour into a greased 9" square baking dish. Bake at 400 for 25 mins or until golden brown.
