This recipe combines my two favorite ingredients. Eggs and cheese.
Ever since I was a kid I have loved that combination.
Three-cheese Frittatas
Kids love these—maybe because it’s such a treat for them to have their very own little omelets. (I am also a huge fan, so I guess you can call me a big kid, too!)
Makes 8
8 eggs
6 tablespoons heavy cream
1/3 cup ricotta cheese
2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons grated Jarlsberg cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 small oregano sprigs
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Cut 3”x 3” squares of parchment paper and press into a muffin tin.
Mix eggs, cream, ricotta, Parmesan, Jarlsberg, salt and pepper.
Fill each paper cup 3/4 full.
Add oregano.
Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden and set.
Serve warm or cold.
these look great. i am definitely making them.

Agreed, two of my favorite ingredients as well. I'm loving on using parchment to bake things. The presentation is so chic.

This is a nice gluten-free option to mini-quiche. It would be great for a brunch party.

Yeah, this is a really grate (pun intended, obviously) idea! I love the idea of mini Frittatas, but I think 6 tablespoons of heavy cream is a bit much for me. Anyone have any suggestions on a substitute? Could I put in some half n half, or would they not have the right consistency? I'm thinking I'm going to tweak this recipe.
Anyway, great article; really fab blog! Thanks! :)

Eggs and cheese have always been a favorite of mine too; especially anything that contains Jarlsberg Swiss as an ingredient. This looks like a great recipe and I can't wait to try it out this weekend.
