Ah, breakfast! The most important meal of the day!
Always on the hunt for something deliciously healthy to wake up to, I was especially exited to receive a review copy of Beth’s new eBook – The Breakfast Revolution, which is now officially on sale at her website.
In fact, I was so excited about this wonderful breakfast resource, I asked (okay, begged) Beth to allow me to share with you one of the fabulous gluten-free recipes featured in her new book. Happily, she agreed.
Of course, there are so many wonderful recipes in the book! But being an unabashed egg lover, I asked to share one of my favorite classic egg dishes – the always-satisfying frittata. And this one is the bomb! (We’re all about savory breakfasts here and this frittata is so rich and flavorful, I’m putting it on my meal plan this week for dinner!)
This wonderful recipe is just one of the many easy-to-make recipes featured in The Breakfast Revolution – a delicious solution for gluten-free healthy breakfasts!
Ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1⁄2 red sweet pepper, diced
- 1⁄2 orange or yellow sweet pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup cooked black beans (or canned, rinsed and drained)
- 1⁄2 pound ground beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1⁄2 tsp cumin
- 1⁄2 tsp chili powder
- 1⁄2 tsp oregano
- 8 eggs
- 1⁄4 cup cream (or milk)
- 1⁄2 tsp salt
- 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Warm a cast-iron pan, add butter. Toss in diced onion, tomato, garlic, and peppers.
- Add ground beef, salt and spices.
- Sauté mixture until beef is browned and veggies are tender.
- If you notice a lot of extra liquid from the cooking process, use a large spoon to remove as much of the excess liquid as possible to ensure your fritatta isn't runny.
- Then, distribute black beans in a layer on top of beef mixture.
- Whisk eggs with cream in a bowl with 1⁄2 tsp salt, then pour egg mixture over top of beef and beans.
- Sprinkle cheese over top.
- Allow to cook for one minute on stove-top, then transfer to oven (only if you have a pan with an oven-safe handle!) at 300 degrees for 5 minutes, then broil for 5. Watch carefully during broiling to make sure it doesn’t cook too quickly and burn, as oven temperatures can vary, and broiling happens quickly.
Notes
Note: If you don’t have an oven-safe pan, then use a glass pie pan and bake for 15 minutes, or until set. (After Step 3, transfer mixture to pie plate. Fry meat and veggies first as per Step 1 and 2).
