Ham Mushroom Frittata

Our frittata for this week features ham and mushrooms. I love mushrooms. I'm always glad to have an excuse to buy them. Saute them in garlic and butter then eat on everything. Mmmmm. I used turkey ham in this recipe since I had to know what turkey ham tasted like but regular ham works just as well.

2 Tbs butter
2 cups chopped mushrooms
8oz turkey ham
24 eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
4oz shredded cheddar
handful chopped parsley
salt and pepper

Saute the mushrooms and ham in the butter. Mix the eggs with the cream, cheese, parsley, and seasonings. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes.

I lined the sides with squash slices - a cheap veggie - in attempt to alleviate the cleaning nightmare the last frittata left. This one turned out amazingly delicious. I think it would be better with Swiss or goat cheese instead of the cheddar. I had upped the mushrooms but the original author was on track with the mushroom content. Dial back the mushrooms to 1 cup.
