Fall Harvest

The 10 day forecast had shown the first frost rapidly approaching and my poor garden had been recently tricked into thinking it was still summer. I had loads of fresh veggies of every variety waiting to be plucked and consumed. In an effort to make use of everything we had out there I put together what I'm calling the "Garden Gluttony Gluten-Free Fritatta". Additionally the fridge was in desperate need of evacuation so in went the smoked ham, bleu cheese, swiss cheese and a touch of parm. Yes, it was pretty rich but yummy.

Oddly, our schnauzers (collectively known as "Sauer-Kraut" Elsa is Sauer and Bruno is Kraut.) love veggies too. They couldn't get enough of the scraps that came flying their way as a result of a crazy chopping technique I've developed.

What ya need (for two hungry eaters):

5 Eggs beaten

1/2 cup half and half

1/4 cup milk

salt and pepper to taste

4 slices torn smoked deli ham

bleu cheese to your liking

grated swiss cheese to your liking

sprinkle of parmesan cheese

fresh wilted spinach

grated carrots

green onion

sliced Mr. Stripey heirloom tomatoes

cherry tomatoes

What to do:

Whisk together the eggs, cream, milk

Add salt & pepper

Stir in bleu cheese, ham, spinach and green onion

Fry in skillet over medium heat until the bottom of the egg is set

Remove from heat

Arrange remaining veggies on top of egg so it looks "pretty"

Sprinkle with swiss and parm

Place skillet in oven and Broil until bubbly and golden (entire egg should now be just cooked)

Voila! Yum!
