Zucchini Frittata

I made the frittata from this Frittata and Tomato Sandwich recipe courtesy of Michael Chiarello. I was flipping past the Food Network channel, and he happened to be making it before my eyes. I almost never turn on the Food Channel and catch a chef making something that I would like to eat, but this time I got lucky.

I like the technique of broiling the zucchini. I'll be doing that again. It does cause the zucchini to get very soft, not "just tender" as the recipe says. I only had parmesan cheese, so that's what I used.

Another egg and zucchini recipe: I had some grated zucchini left over from making zucchini bread. Mix the grated zucchini with egg, salt, and pepper (herbs or garlic would be good too) and then fry in a pan as you would a pancake. The result is light and tender. You can mix just one egg with a pretty large amount of zucchini.
