Fritatta
| 3 cups leftover cooked pasta in tomato sauce, any type |
| 6 large eggs |
| 0.33 cup freshly grated Parmigiano or Romano cheese |
| 0.25 tsp salt |
| freshly ground black pepper, to taste |
| 0.25 cup a mixture of chopped fresh herbs like basil, parsley, and/or oregano |
| 2 Tbsp pure olive oil |
Pasta Fritatta Directions
- In a small bowl, toss the cold pasta with the grated cheese.
- Crack the eggs into another bowl. Season with salt, black pepper, and chopped herbs.
- Heat the olive oil in an 8-inch non-stick skillet.
- Add the pasta/cheese mixture to the pan and allow it to cook for about 5 minutes allowing the pasta to become brown and crispy.
- Using a spatula, flip the noodles over in the skillet.
- Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the other side to brown.
- Add the egg mixture to the pasta by pouring it into the skillet evenly.
- Over medium heat, allow the frittata to cook and set for about 8 minutes.
- If the top is slightly runny, you can flip the frittata over in the pan or finish cooking it in an oven, under a broiler.
- When the frittata is done, slice it into wedges and serve.
