Spinach and Ham Frittata

I had the honor of hosting Easter this year for my side of the family and of course had plenty of honey-baked ham leftover.  I was getting sick of eating ham sandwiches for lunch, so in order to get rid of the stuff, I decided to make a frittata for dinner one night.  This recipe has been adapted from an Alton Brown recipe (I love him).  I switched a few ingredients, basically whatever I had on hand.  I came home late and was still able to whip up a great meal in less than 15 minutes.  This is a great recipe and a practical and easy way to get rid of those Easter leftovers.

Ingredients:

• 6 eggs
• 1/2 c Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground pepper
• 1/2 c spinach
• 1/2 c ham, diced
• parsley for sprinkling
• splash of Tabasco sauce for taste (optional)

Directions:

1. Turn your oven on broil
2. In a small bowl, beat the eggs
3. Add the Parmesan, salt, and pepper to the eggs
4. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the ham (if not cooked) and spinach.  Saute for 2-3 minutes
5. Pour the egg mixture over the ham and spinach and saute for 4-5 minutes
6. Sprinkle with parsley and place pan in oven and broil 3-4 minutes or until egg is set
7. Sprinkle with a splash of Tabasco and serve warm
