Fritatta are one of my favorites. I also eat my Broccoli leaves in many different ways. I often add some leftover pasta, potatoes or rice to my fritattas. Hot peppers are great in fritattas also. <br/>

Hey everyone. Im a chef here in missouri and would love to share any info about food i can. I think one of my fav ways to use up greens is in a breakfast fritatta. Sounds fancy but is basiaclly just a baked omelet. I use beet greens, swiss chard stemsand greens tons of herbs, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms i grow, and basically what ever else i have. One of my favs is broccoli greens. I never have good results with the actuall crown of broccoli, but have discovered that while managing the large leafs overcrowding my grow area, a quick saute of some chopped leafs works just like cooking collards or spinach and makes a great addition to my fritattas. So gather your fav veggies, i usually add a little bacon, crisp that up, add your veggies and wilt. Then you crack three or four eggs, depending on how many your feeding, and whisk like your making scrambled eggs, and pour over the veggie bacon mixture. Now i usually sprinkle some goat cheese or cream cheese blobs on top. Now the easy part, before u start the process, turn ur oven on to broil. Put the pan under the broiler and broil untill the top is just starting to brown and looks set when you shake it. Now pull and let sit for a few minutes on the counter. It is very benificial to use a good non stick pan, so you can just slide the finished fritatta onto a cutting board and cut into wedges just like a pizza! And oh man.......watch the family come running. I like to drizzle some balsamic syrup over the top, just reduced balsamic vinegar and maybe a piece of whole wheat toast.

Set aside.<br/>Heat oil in pan and saute garlic, allow to barely brown, then add greens. There will be a lot, so as they start to cook down, keep adding more. Carefully toss to coat all greens to coat in hot oil. Constantly stir for about 3 minutes. Drizzle balsalmic vinegar over greens and continue to stir about 1 minute. Greens should be wilted but dark in color and not mushy. Remove from heat and put on plate. Top with pecans, cranberrys and crumbled feta. Salt and pepper to taste.</p>

Get the next part of the recipe ready while you wait for the collards to cook. <br/><br/>In a food processor, blend up one can of the tomatoes and the chipotle pepper(you can find these at the grocery in the Mexican food section. The chipotle adds around 200 mg of sodium to the recipe. The whole recipe serves around 6 people so that isn't too bad and the chipotle adds such a nice flavor). Drain the collards when they are done then put them back in the pot. Add in the tomato/chipotle combo and all of the other ingredients as well. Mix well. Heat until bubbly. Serve with some kind of cornbread cakes(if your diet permits). This is much better after it has been in the fridge overnight and re-heated.</span></p>
