Southwestern frittata


I really just love recipes that are very versatile.  You can literally just take a basic recipe,look into your refrigerator, see what you have and throw something together. That is what I did with this frittata and it was AMAZING!!!!

I took 1/2 cup of a frozen potato mix, placed in an iron skillet(or something oven safe) and cook on med. heat until slightly browned.


I then added 1/4 diced onion
4 oz. mushrooms
2 jalapenos (optional)
a handful of fresh spinach and some type of meat.
I used leftover fajita meat from last nights dinner. I cooked that for about 5-7 min. Until the heat warms up all of the ingredients.




I then took 9 eggs and whisked them vigorously(like you would do for scrambled eggs), and add to the pan. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.


Then add 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, 1/2 cup of feta cheese and 2 tablespoons of sun-dried tomatoes( not in oil. if in oil, rinse off).



Cook w/o stirring for about 5 min., or until the egg mixture is just about set but the top is still loose. Then place the pan in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 20-25 min. (until the center is set). Remove from the oven, slice and serve




And waaalllllaaaahhhh, Happy eating y'all!

AMAZING Crab stuffed mushrooms

I took 8 large mushrooms(any kind that you would like) and hollowed out the stems. Finely dice the stems.
Take about 1/3rd of the stems(freeze the rest for later) and mix with 4 tablespoons of butter, 1 oz. of cream cheese(both softened), a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon of minced garlic. Once that is mixed add in 1 can of crab meat and a dash of salt, pepper, lime juice and ranch dressing.
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees and baste(or I like to spray with a butter spray) butter over the whole caps of the mushrooms. I also add a dash of dry white wine.
Then I place the filling in a ziploc bag and cut a corner off the end(this works like a pastry bag and makes it easy to fill the mushrooms).
Once "stuffed", I then added panko bread crumbs on the top, sprayed with more butter and placed in the oven for about 15 min.(or until the mushrooms are browned and the bread crumbs are toasty).
And waaalllaaahhh.. Happy eating y'all!
