What You Need

6
EGGS
1/2
cup milk
1/4
tsp. salt
1/8
tsp. pepper
1
cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 oz.)
3/4
cup finely chopped zucchini
1/4
cup finely chopped red bell pepper
2
Tbsp. finely chopped red onion
CROSTINI:
36
thin baguette slices (1/4-inch)
3
Tbsp. olive oil
3/4
cup chive & onion spreadable cream cheese

Here’s How

  1. CROSTINI: HEAT oven to 375°F. BRUSH both sides of bread slices lightly with olive oil; place in single layer on baking sheets. BAKE in 375°F oven until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes; cool on wire racks.
  2. Reduce oven setting to 350°F. COAT 36 mini muffin cups (1-3/4 x 3/4-inch) with cooking spray.
  3. BEAT eggs, milk, salt and pepper in medium bowl until blended. ADD cheese, zucchini, bell pepper and onion; mix well. SPOON about 1 Tbsp. egg mixture into each muffin cup.
  4. BAKE in 350°F oven until just set, 10 to 13 minutes. COOL on wire rack 5 minutes; remove from cups.
  5. To serve, SPREAD about 1 tsp. cream cheese on each crostini; top with a mini frittata.

  • Pressed for time? Recipe can be made with purchased crostini.
