Pasta Frittata Recipe

This Pasta Frittata is a delicious way to use leftover pasta, turning it into a golden, cheesy dish perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It’s quick, versatile, and packed with flavor.

Ingredients (Serves 4-6):

  • 2 cups cooked pasta (spaghetti, penne, or any pasta)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk or cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • Optional additions: diced ham, cooked bacon, sautéed vegetables, or herbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Prepare the Egg Mixture:

    • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir in any optional additions like ham or vegetables.

  3. Combine with Pasta:

    • Add the cooked pasta to the egg mixture and toss to coat evenly.

  4. Cook on the Stovetop:

    • Heat the olive oil or butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once hot, pour the pasta and egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.

  5. Add Cheese:

    • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

  6. Bake the Frittata:

    • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and the cheese is golden and bubbly.

  7. Cool and Serve:

    • Allow the frittata to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley or additional Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Leftover Pasta: This recipe works great with sauced or plain pasta. If using sauced pasta, adjust the seasonings.
  • Skillet Choice: Use a cast iron or oven-safe nonstick skillet to easily transition from stovetop to oven.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.

This Pasta Frittata is a hearty, satisfying dish that’s perfect for any time of the day. Enjoy it with a side salad or a slice of crusty bread for a complete meal. 🍝🥚🧀
