My sister, Jen, is visiting this weekend. She is great in the kitchen, so I knew that this would be an opportunity to cook some recipes. So the first night, we decided to make the frittata with s'mores for dessert.
I have never made a frittata before. The idea that an egg concoction can be in a skillet for 15 minutes without being stirred and not get scorched was baffling to me before last night. The recipe calls for eggs, corn, mild green chiles, milk, thyme, salt, pepper, hot pepper sauce and cherry tomatoes. Everything but the tomatoes gets whisked together and poured into a medium skillet. The tomatoes get sprinkled on top, and the whole bit is covered and left for 15 minutes on medium heat.
We had it with buttered light wheat toast. The meal was delicious! The egg was, to quote my sister and husband, "fluffy, non-gooey yet solid." I think that it would make a great brunch meal as well.
Anna, my 2 1/2 year old, liked the dish. That says a lot. I would make it again.
The recipe makes four servings (1/4 of the fritatta), and each serving is 4 points.
PointsPlus: still 4 points
For dessert, I made oven s'mores. It makes 8 s'mores and uses fluff and chocolate chips. It cooks in the oven at 425 degrees for 8 minutes. As a winter dessert, it was quite satisfying. The s'mores tasted like the real thing without the singed arm hair. 3 points per s'more.
PointsPlus: still 3 points
