Potato and Broccoli Frittata
A great way to start off the morning with this delicious frittata. Frittatas are everything to love about a quiche without the fuss of a crust.
Ingredients: 1 medium potato; 2 whole eggs; 1/2 tbsp. water; 1 to 2 tbsp. coconut oil; 1/2 to 1 tbsp. garlic; 1/4 cup broccoli (small florets); 1/4 cup brown or red rice (soaked or cooked); handful of collard greens, chopped; 1 tbsp. basil (picked); salt and pepper to taste
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 F. Scrub potato under cold water, dry, and bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Remove potato from oven, let cool and then dice small.
- In a small bowl, whisk eggs with 1/2 tbsp. of water.
- In a nonstick pan, saute 1/4 cup potato in coconut oil over medium heat until crispy. Add garlic and broccoli and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add rice and collards and cover for 10 seconds, or until collards are wilted.
- Pour egg mixture evenly over vegetables in the pan, then sprinkle basil on top. Season with salt and pepper.
- With a rubber spatula, lift the edges of the frittata as it cooks, allowing the runny egg mixture to seep below until it becomes firm enough to flip (about 2 to 3 minutes).
- Using the spatula, flip the frittata over and finish cooking for 1 additional minute. Move frittata to a cutting board and slice into wedges.
