Serve the frittata with chunky salsa, and put together a side salad with your favorite summer vegetables.



Ingredients
4 large eggs
1 cup fresh corn kernels (from about 2 ears of corn) or frozen, thawed
1/2 cup (packed) grated Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeños
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 Red pepper, diced
2 6-inch-diameter corn tortillas, cut into small wedges
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion

Method
  1. Preheat broiler. Whisk eggs in medium bowl to blend. Mix in corn, cheese and 2 tablespoons cilantro. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix in tortillas.
  2. Heat oil in heavy medium broilerproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper and sauté until just tender, about 5 minutes. Pour egg mixture into skillet and stir to blend. Cover skillet. Cook frittata over low heat until eggs are almost set, about 8 minutes. Uncover skillet; broil frittata until top is set and starting to brown, about 1 minute. Slide frittata onto plate. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro. Cut into wedges and serve.
