Hello from the Hunt Kitchen!

I was told I have lots of good recipes and that I should start a recipe blog, so here ya go! My fondest memories of home were sitting around to the table each evening with my family to eat a good home-cooked meal and I desire to keep that tradition going in my own home. I work hard to make sure my family has a good and balanced meal each day. I have tried each of these recipes and give them my approval.

I'm going to post my weekly menus as well, so feel free to mooch if you like. I do all my grocery shopping on Saturdays, so I plan my menus from Saturday to Friday. Friday is always Pizza Day; Saturday is usually open to either leftovers or some sort of burger. Wednesdays are usually leftovers as well - most of the recipes make more than enough for dinner for our family of 5, so we always have food to eat on Wednesdays without having to fix something new.

Please leave your comments on any recipe you try - even if it didn't work out! Bon Appetit!!

Frittata

6 eggs
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 glove garlic, minced
1 Tbs. margarine or butter
3/4 cup chopped cooked vegetables or meat
2 Tbs. grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

Beat eggs and pepper; set aside. In a 10-inch broilerproof skillet cook onion and garlic in margarine till tender. Stir in vegetables or meat.

Pour egg mixture into skillet over vegetables or meat. Cook over medium heat. As mixture sets, run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting egg mixture so the uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking and lifting edges till the egg mixture is almost set (surface will be moist).

Place broilerproof skillet under the broiler 4 to 5 inches from the heat. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes or till top is just set. Sprinkle with cheese. Cut into wedges. Makes 3 servings.

Oven Frittata: Prepare as above, except use an ovenproof skillet. Pour egg mixture into the skillet. Bake into a 350 degree oven about 15 minutes or till a knife inserted neat the center comes out clean.
