Yesterday, after working at the hospital, instead of going grocery shopping, I decided to drive down the shore with my younger daughter. I am that kind of mother, spontaneous and willing to do any unplanned and fun activities with my children. Needless to say, this morning, I did not have much in my pantry to make our usual sumptuous breakfast. I had leftover salmon, milk, cheese, eggs, and scallions, so I used them to make us a delicious Salmon’s Frittata.
After all, cooking is not complicated, use whatever you have on hand to make a feast in your own kitchen. Soon, you will realize, your best dishes are created with the simplest ingredients.
Marjie’s Salmon Frittata
Ingredients
Leftover baked salmon
6 eggs
¼ cup milk
1 chopped scallion
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Cheddar cheese
Feta cheese
½ tsp paprika
1 tbsp dried parsley
½ tsp pepper flakes
Salt and pepper
Preparation
Shred the salmon and season with pepper flakes
In a skillet, cook the scallion in the oil over medium heat for about 1 or 2 minutes. Add the shredded salmon, parsley, and pepper flakes.
In a bowl. whisk together the eggs, milk, half of both kinds of cheese, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the eggs to the salmon mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the frittata is about 3/4 of the way cooked through. Meanwhile, preheat your broiler.
Sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the top, place the frittata under the broiler and cook until the top is a deep golden brown.
Hope your weekend was fabulous, and you are ready to start another week of my favorite month
Oh, that looks delicious! I love frittatas but never thought of using salmon in them. Definitely trying this!
I use whatever I have on hand to cook. Yesterday I had Salmon and eggs, therefore, I created Frittata, Lois.
That looks really yummy – I love frittatas! Will definitely give your recipe a go…
It was delicious, Kate!
We made a frittata once with a bunch of leftover veggies from other meals. I never thought of adding meat into it, this sounds great! And I’m sure it was very filling, too.
I usually add spinach or any other veggies, but I did not have yesterday, Stephanie, and it turned great with the salmon.
I love healthy and veggie foods and I think that food looks delicious! I will try cook that one!
You will love it, Maysz!
Spontaneous trips with loved ones are the best! That said for having nothing in your pantry this looks amazing!
We love the fun here, Angela!
Wow, I am cooking this tonight! 🙂 It should be great with salmon. Never tried it before, but look forward to doing it in a few hours.
It will not take long, Andrea.

Ye, Melanie, simple and delicious.
I’ve yet to find a salmon recipe that we like. However, I love frittatas, this might be the one.
I love seafood in general, Kayla. If you don’t like this one, I will try another salmon recipe, just for you.
This looks absolutely delicious! Love a good frittata! Would love to see you make more of these with other seafood!
