For this recipe, you’ll need two mini muffin tins (those with 24 little cups.)

Ingredients:

  • About ½ cup of leftover TBS ham, finely chopped
  • Nonstick vegetable oil cooking spray
  • 8 large eggs
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated; and 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped, OR 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated; and 3 tablespoons fresh chives, minced.
  • Optional:  ¼ cup leftover vegetables, finely chopped (green beans, asparagus, corn, broccoli, etc.)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
  2. Spray the muffins tins well with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Whisk together the eggs, milk, pepper, and salt in a large bowl.
  4. Stir in the ham, choice of cheese, selection of herbs, and vegetables.  
  5. Use a ladle to fill the muffin cups.
  6. Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the mixture puffs and feels set in the center.
  7. Immediately remove from the tins and place on a serving platter.  Cover with foil to keep warm.  

If you have regular size muffin/cupcake tins, you can make larger frittatas.  Fill each of the regular-sized muffin cups about ¾ of the way full, and then bake for 22-25 minutes until they begin to puff and feel set in the center.
