Best Egg Tostada Frittata With Rainbow Tomato Salsa Recipes

EGG WHITE FRITTATA WITH ARUGULA, TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚. Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until tender and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the arugula and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low.
• Beat the egg whites and mustard in a medium bowl with a mixer on high speed until foamy.
• Return the heat to medium and pour the egg white mixture into the skillet. Cook until the bottom is set, lifting the edges occasionally to allow the raw egg whites to drip to the bottom of the skillet, about 3 minutes. Top with the tomato slices and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Top evenly with the goat cheese.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the eggs are set, about 8 minutes. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and a sprinkle of basil, if desired.

RAINBOW COTTAGE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy pan over medium heat. Finely chop the onion, add to the pan and season with salt. Do the same with the celery and carrot and cook with the onion until they're softened, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often to ensure it doesn't stick.
• Once the veggies have softened slightly and the onion has turned translucent, grate in the garlic. Stir for a minute until fragrant and then add in the beef. Using a wooden spoon, breakdown the beef so it's in small pieces and continue to stir until all the meat has browned, about 10 minutes. At this point, stir in the tomato paste and then the red wine, stirring until all absorbed. Top with the beef stock and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat to a simmer, add in the thyme, bay leaves and season with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Leave to cook until you have a rich thick sticky sauce and most of the liquid has gone, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Peel and dice the potatoes. Add to a large pot of salted boiling water and boil until fork tender, about 25 minutes. Drain completely. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving a bit of purple chunks for texture. Add in the butter and the milk to loosen and season with salt and pepper.
• Now all your elements are ready for building your rainbow cottage pie. Spoon a thick layer of the beef in a 9- by 13-inch glass baking dish, pressing down to pack it in. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half across the equator and lay them cut-side down over the beef, making sure there are no gaps. Completely cover the tomatoes with the spinach, pushing down gently to flatten and tucking into the corners. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the spinach (this will go gorgeously gooey in the oven). Spoon the mashed potatoes on top in 4 equal dots and then smooth over to cover the whole of the top, making sure no spinach is on show. Use the back of a spoon to add a bit of texture (like frosting a cake) to the mash so it crisps in the oven.
• Bake until crisp and bubbling and the tomatoes are juicy, 30 to 35 minutes. Leave to sit for 10 minutes - if you can - before serving.

LORI'S SALSA RANCHERA

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook the bacon until done but soft, not crisp. Add the tomatoes, peppers, onions, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and serve hot over your morning eggs (huevos rancheros), tamales, beans (frijoles) or potatoes (papas). Serve cold with tortilla chips.

CHILI SWEET POTATO HASH WITH FRIED EGGS AND FRESH TOMATO SALSA B, L OR D MEAL: GOOD FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH OR DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat with 2 turns of the pan of olive oil, about 2 tablespoons. Add the breakfast sausage and break it up with the back of a wooden spoon into little chunks, brown sausage for 3 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes and 3/4 of the chopped red onion to the sausage, season with chili powder, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper, stir frequently and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the potatoes are nice and tender.
• While the hash is cooking, in a small bowl combine the tomatoes, jalapeno, and the remaining chopped red onion, cilantro, lime juice and a little salt and pepper.
• Once the hash is cooked, add the chopped parsley, stir to combine and transfer hash to a serving platter. Sprinkle with the cheese and cover with aluminum foil, the cheese will melt while you make the fried eggs.
• Wipe clean the skillet you made the hash in, return it to the cook top over medium-high heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted, crack each of the eggs into the skillet, season with a little salt and pepper and fry to desired doneness. Eggs may, of course, be scrambled as well. As you like!
• Transfer the fried eggs to the top of the hash, sprinkle with the fresh tomato salsa and serve.
