Salsa Frittata

By Linda Larsen, About.com

You can use a purchased salsa instead of the homemade one in this easy meatless main dish recipe.

Prep Time: 25 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup finely chopped seeded tomato
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow summer squash
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped peeled seeded cucumber
  • 8 oz. bottle taco sauce
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 12 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp. water
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Preparation:

Combine tomato, summer squash, cucumber and taco sauce in a small bowl, mix well and set aside.

Melt butter in large heavy nonstick skillet. Add onions and cook and stir until translucent and tender, 3-5 minutes. Meanwhile, beat eggs with water, salt and pepper in a large bowl until combined. Pour over onions in skillet.

Cook eggs over low heat for 6-7 minutes, drawing spatula across bottom of skillet to allow uncooked egg mixture to flow to bottom of skillet. When eggs start to look set, cover skillet and cook 2-3 more minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with cheese. Cover skillet again and cook 1-2 minutes until cheese is melted and eggs are set and thoroughly cooked. Cut into wedges and top with vegetable taco sauce. 6 servings
