I think you need a second basket

I have one, but it has dyed Easter eggs in it.
Let’s make it a third or fourth basket instead!

Omelets?

I’m very lucky, my kids will eat eggs every single day when they aren’t in school. So weekends, vacations, and summer when production is high! DH & I have them every weekend, and we do breakfast for dinner once a week. Plus coating for meatballs & chicken breading! Between my garden & kids eating eggs all summer, can’t wait to see my grocery bill go down! Just have to make sure we have bread & butter for toast.

6 yesterday 3 from banty
Fritatta uses a dozen
Frittata


Cast iron skillet (10-12")
400 degree oven

12 eggs, slightly beaten
1/3 cup milk
2-3 tablespoons sour cream
Italian seasoning
Salt
Pepper
Olive oil
Parmesan cheese

Vegetable possibilities:

Broccoli, cut into small florets
Carrots, cut into 1/8" slices
Onions, diced
Garlic, minced
Peppers, seeded and cut into small pieces
Greens of any kind
Cherry tomatoes, cut in half
Asparagus spears, cut into chunks

Sauté the veg in olive oil. You want them to be mostly cooked, and to lose their excess moisture. Add greens at the very end, so they wilt.

Mix the sour cream into the milk, and pour that into the eggs. Sprinkle any seasonings on, and stir together until just mixed.

When the veg are done sautéing, pour the egg mixture over and stir slightly in the pan so that the eggs and veg are combined. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top. Continue to cook on the stove on low until the eggs are set around the edges.

Bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes. Stick a knife in the center; it should come out clean. If not, bake 2-3 minutes longer.

Cool in pan. Store in the fridge.

Other things I haven't tried yet:

Grated cheese mixed in the eggs and veg instead of parmesan on top. Different seasonings. Other veg than what I've listed.
