Mini Baked Frittata with Potatoes, Bacon, Sharp Cheddar, and Green Onions

by Pam on September 27, 2012

I made this for breakfast yesterday and I absolutely loved it. I was craving a Peasant’s Omelet and a frittata so I decided to combine the two. It took a little more time to make because I had to pre-cook the potatoes but it was definitely worth the extra time. I loved everything about this little frittata and I can’t wait to make it again.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a mini baking dish with cooking spray.

Slice the baby potatoes then cook them in boiling water over high heat for 5-7 minutes or until fork tender. Cook one slice of bacon until crisp in a skillet over medium heat then place on a paper towel to drain the grease; crumble.

Mix the eggs with the milk until well combined then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Place some of the potato into the mini baking dish; add a little bit of bacon, cheddar, and green onions.

Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish then place the remaining potatoes, bacon, cheddar, and green onions on top.

Place into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy.

Tapenade, Mozzarella, and Tomato Panini

by Pam on September 26, 2012

I had leftover tapenade^[1] to use up as well as some French bread so I decided to make a panini. I added a bit of mozzarella and some tomato slices and this sandwich ended up being AMAZING. I loved the salty tapenade with the crisp bread and the gooey cheese. It was simple, quick (literally took 5 minutes), and so delicious. I am excited to say that I still have some tapenade and French bread left… guess what I’ll be having for lunch tomorrow!

Make the tapenade^[2].

Preheat your panini grill or a grill pan over medium heat.

Place a little bit of mozzarella on top of one slice of bread. Add the tapenade to the top of the cheese followed by the tomato slices and a little more cheese. Place the other piece of bread on top.

Place into your panini pan (or grill pan). Cook for 5 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

Side Note: I always cook my paninis dry. I find that using oil or butter on the bread makes the sandwich too greasy. Try it – I bet you will like it and it’s way better for you!

Gordon Ramsay’s Hot Bananas

I’m not exactly sure what show Gordon cooks this dessert on. He has so many shows lately, it’s hard to keep up. It does look mighty scrumptious though. This dessert is completely decadent, so roll up your sleeves and prepare to spoil yourself and your guests.

Ingredients:

Sugar – 1 cup
Bananas
Butter – 2 TBS
Chili finely sliced – (1-2)
Brown Rum – nice sized glug
Coconut Milk – 1/4 cup
Vanilla Ice Cream – several scoops

Directions:

Add the sugar to a hot pan over medium heat and caramelize. Slice bananas add to pan, and coat them in the caramel. Add butter and allow to melt. Add the finely sliced chili if you like it hot, and stir. Pour in the rum, and flambe (set it on fire – carefully). Add coconut milk and twirl.

Spoon bananas into serving dishes and top each serving with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream.

Done!
