THE FARMER'S FRITTATA (ITALIAN-STYLE OMELET)
Loaded with fresh vegetables and a touch of bacon, this farmer's frittata is my favorite type of frittata. It's a perfect way to use your gorgeous, fresh garden vegetables. Curing the squash with kosher salt pulls out the bitterness and makes the squash taste sweeter. It's got great texture, taste, and visual appeal and can be served hot, warm, at room temperature or cold for any meal of the day.

Steps:
- Combine zucchini and summer squash in a bowl and sprinkle 2 tablespoons kosher salt over top; toss until everything is evenly coated. Let sit for 15 minutes, tossing occasionally.
- Thoroughly rinse squash with cold water to remove all salt; transfer to a colander and let drain for 15 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-inch, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until browned and almost crisp, about 5 minutes.
- While the bacon is cooking, mix eggs, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, black pepper, cayenne, and green onions together with a fork in a large bowl.
- Raise the heat on the bacon to medium-high; toss in peppers and red onion plus a pinch of salt. Cook and stir until the peppers just start to soften and the onions turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Add drained squash and carefully stir together; cook until squash is just barely tender, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Toss Cheddar cheese into the skillet and pour egg mixture over top. Stir with a spatula (like you were making scrambled eggs) until it starts to thicken up, 30 to 45 seconds. Shake the pan gently to settle the contents and turn off the heat. Push the edges down a bit with the spatula and sprinkle goat cheese over top. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Place under the preheated broiler until the surface is lightly browned and frittata is firm to the touch, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with more green onions and let cool for 5 minutes before transferring it onto a serving plate.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to the high broil setting. Set a rack in the oven 3 to 4-inches from the broiler.
- In a medium bowl toss the sliced squash with the oil, rosemary, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Lay the squash in a single layer on a cooling rack set inside a foil lined half sheet pan. Broil until the squash is golden brown on 1 side, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Whisk the eggs, ricotta, and Parmesan together in a medium mixing bowl. Put the squash in a 10-inch nonstick, oven-safe saute pan set over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir with a silicone spatula to make sure egg gets under the squash. Cook without stirring until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set on top, about 4 to 5 minutes. Put the pan under the broiler until lightly browned and puffy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Loosen the frittata from the pan by moving a rubber spatula around the edges. Slide the frittata onto a plate or other serving dish, and cut into 6 servings. Serve warm or at room temperature.
SUMMER SQUASH FRITTATA
Nice light meal for summer that uses fresh veggies, and is easy to put together. It is really a meal in itself, but you could always add some fresh french bread & herb butter to go with it.

GARDEN FRITTATA
I created this frittata recipe one day to use up some fresh yellow squash, zucchini and tomato. It's so easy to make because you don't have to fuss with a crust. Give it different twist by trying it with whatever veggies you have on hand. -Catherine Michel, St. Peters, Missouri

- Preheat oven to 350°. Using your hands and working in batches, squeeze excess liquid out of zucchini (this is key to avoid a soggy frittata—do your best).
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in an 8" or 10" cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add onion and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and beginning to brown, 5–8 minutes. Add zucchini and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is cooked through and beginning to brown (mixture will look quite dry at this point), 5–8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in butter until melted.
- Whisk eggs and crème fraîche in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper; pour over vegetables. Cook, stirring egg mixture and swirling pan frequently (be sure to scrape down the sides as well), until edges are just set (the texture of a very soft scramble), about 5 minutes. Dollop with ricotta and sprinkle with Parmesan. Transfer skillet to oven and bake eggs until puffed slightly and the center is set, 12–15 minutes. Let frittata cool in pan at least 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine herbs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl. Season herb salad with salt and pepper and arrange over fritatta. Top with red pepper flakes, if using, and slice into wedges before serving.
