Ingredients: 2 small potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes; 8 large eggs, lightly beaten; 2 tablespoons water; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder; 1/8 teaspoon chile powder; 1/8 teaspoon pepper; 1 small zucchini, chopped; 1/4 cup chopped onion; 1 tablespoon butter; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 2 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced; 1 cup Kerrygold shredded sharp cheddar cheese; 1 cup Kerrygold shredded sharp cheddar cheese

The potato crust on this pretty frittata is so easy to make, and everyone will love the taste. I’ve made it with goat cheese, too, and it’s delicious. You can also use other vegetables if you like. —Harbour House Inn B&B, Eva Amuso, Cheshire, Massachusetts

Ingredients

2 small potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon chile powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 small zucchini, chopped
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cup Kerrygold shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°. Place potatoes in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 5 minutes. Drain. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, water, salt, garlic powder, chile powder and pepper; set aside.
In a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, saute zucchini, onion and potatoes in butter and oil until tender. Reduce heat. Pour 1-1/2 cups egg mixture into skillet. Arrange half of the tomatoes over top; sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining egg mixture, tomatoes and cheese.

This was fairly simple, but not very flavorful.

Yummy! I've made this twice, the first time I added some green bell pepper. The second time I added bell pepper and a little browned breakfast sausage!

Great dish for a crowd. I doubled it and served it for a football party last year. I'm making it again for our "first game of the year" party.

Quite tasty! We added some red and orange bell peppers, but you could add any of your favorite veggies for a nice, wholesome breakfast!

Great recipe. I did not have a zucchini so I used broccoli instead. Also had some baby yukon gold potatoes, so no need to peel. Great way to use up some veggies without meat! We will make this again
