Beet Fritatta with Blue Cheese
|
|
Ingredients:
4 medium beets, a mix of red and gold
2 T. olive oil, divided
6 large eggs
¾ c. whole milk
¼ t. sea salt
½ t. black pepper
¼ c. crumbled blue cheese
Method:
Preheat oven to 400˚. Cut beets into ¼″ slices and toss with 1 T. olive oil (toss colors separately if you don't want them to bleed together). Spread out in a single layer on a baking tray covered with parchment paper. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
When beets are tender, heat 1 T. olive oil in an 8″ cast iron skillet over medium. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and blue cheese. Pour into hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Layer beets into the eggs as they cook. Continue cooking for 2-3 more minutes, or until bottom begins to set.
Transfer skillet to 400˚ oven, and continue to cook until set, 8-12 minutes. Serve with extra blue cheese if desired.
