Move over, Dr. Suess!\u00a0 This is what I’m talking about:\u00a0 \"fritslice\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What you\u00a0have here\u00a0is a\u00a0protein-packed powerhouse of nutrition using a ton of kale, farm-fresh eggs, ham and cheddar cheese.\u00a0\u00a0 A fritatta is an Italian\u00a0baked omelet.\u00a0 It is easy and delicious.\u00a0\u00a0Let’s make one!!<\/p>\n

Start by packing\u00a0 your blender full of kale greens,<\/p>\n

about 8 oz.\u00a0 \"kale\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You will need to add liquid (water or milk) to liquify the kale. \u00a0Start with\u00a01\/4\u00a0cup\u00a0of liquid and add more as needed.\u00a0 \"frit2\"<\/a>\"frit3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, add in the eggs.\u00a0 For this big ole fritatta, you need a full dozen farm fresh eggs.\u00a0 Look at the color of those yokes!\u00a0 You don’t find that at the grocery store!!\u00a0\u00a0 Add the eggs to your blender along with 1 tsp. salt and 1\/2 tps. black pepper and pulse a few times to\u00a0incorporate.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, finely chop 1.5 cup of ham and a red onion.\u00a0 \"frit4\"<\/a>\u00a0Cook this over medium heat in a large non-stick skillet with a tsp. of butter to brown the ham and soften the onions.\u00a0 This will take about\u00a07 minutes.\u00a0 Now would be a good time to pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.\u00a0 Once the meat is browned to your liking turn the heat to low, add the green eggs to the pan.\u00a0 \"frit5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As the eggs begin to set, gently stir and let the\u00a0all the ingredients become friends.\u00a0 Because you have added more liquid\u00a0(from the kale and water\/milk) it will be a little looser than\u00a0“just eggs” so let it go til\u00a0you think it’s about\u00a0half-way\u00a0set.\u00a0 \"frit6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Top this with 1 cup (or more, I won’t tell!) of grated cheddar cheese and slide the whole thing into your preheated oven.\u00a0 \"frit7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bake for 10-15 minutes until the center is mostly set and the cheese is melty.\u00a0 Now, switch your oven to broiler and brown the top.\u00a0 \"frit8\"<\/a>\u00a0Don’t let it burn!\u00a0 Just let it take on some broiler action loving!\u00a0\u00a0 Remove from heat and let it sit out for 10 minutes.\u00a0 This allows any moisture to draw back into the fritatta and makes for beautiful slices.\u00a0\u00a0 \"frit9\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
