  • Mini Baked Frittata with Ham, Jalapeno, Sharp Cheddar, Tomatoes, and Cilantro

    This is a guest post from For the Love of Cooking.

    I love making individual frittatas for lunch. They are easy to make, healthy, and a great way to use up leftovers in your refrigerator.  I am surprised that I have never tried adding cilantro to my frittatas before – it made such a wonderful addition to this dish.  I loved the combination of flavors – spicy from the jalapenos, salty from the cheese & ham, and sweet from the baked tomatoes.  I have a feeling I will be making this again very soon!

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Coat a mini baking dish with cooking spray.

    Mix the eggs with the milk until well combined then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.  Place a few pieces of ham, jalapeno, sharp cheddar, tomatoes, and cilantro into the mini baking dish.

    Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish then place the remaining ham, jalapeno, sharp cheddar, tomatoes, and cilantro on top.

    Place into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.  Remove from the oven and serve immediately.  Enjoy.
