see me cook individual frittatas live on TV!

Hi everyone!
This is the second TV segment I recorded recently for a local news TV (see the first one here).
I made individual frittatas with left-over pasta, peas, ham and cheese. This is really a “non-recipe” 
Feel free to substitute with anything else you have around (I like left-over pasta with tomato sauce, raisins, and pine-nuts). Serve with a fresh salad.
You can find the TV channel post here.
Thanks for “tuning in”!!!
Individual spaghetti frittatas
Makes 12 medium muffin tin size frittatas
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 cup frozen peas (or any other fresh vegetable: bell peppers, asparagus, spinach…)
6 eggs
1/3 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup Italian cheese (Parmesan and/or mozzarella), shredded or diced small
4 ounces thin sliced ham (or other deli meat), chopped
4 ounces of cooked spaghetti (or other cooked pasta)
2 Tbsp cup fresh parsley (or other fresh herb), chopped
Preheat the oven to 375F.
Heat the oil in a pan and add the onions. Cook for a minute, then add the peas and sauté for a few minutes until softened. Set aside.
Spray 1 muffin tin pan (with 12 cups) with nonstick spray.
Whisk together eggs and and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
Add the remaining ingredients: cheese, cooled peas, ham, spaghetti and parsley.
Fill prepared muffin tins almost to the top with the mixture.
Bake until they puff up and become golden on the top, about 20-25 minutes.
Using a spatula, loosen the frittatas from the muffin tins and slide on a plate.
Serve warm or cold.

Amazing, as always. And the simplicity of this "non-recipe" can not be matched. I do similar baked eggs in the style of Persian 'kuku' dishes; sometimes using the recipe, but usually it's just leftovers bound with eggs and baked. I'll hope to see more TV spots from you soon!
Great job…AGAIN, Amelia! So fun to see you 'in action' on TV. Can't wait to make a spin on these little bites of yum. So glad you posted this on your blog.
That was absolutely delicious. Well done Amelia-loved it!
You and your individual frittatas look fabulous! You are so organized as you work through your recipe. I don't think I could do it. Things are a bit more willy-nilly in my kitchen : )
well done! funny, it never occurred to me to make small individual frittata portions but clearly that's what I'll do in future. thanks for the idea.
how great!!! congrats! It must've been fun to do this!!! good "non-recipe"
and nice to see you!
