Butternut Squash Frittata

January 8, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 18 Comments

Hello and Happy Sunday!

I really hate typing that because I know my weekend is almost over.  It just goes so fast!  Only if the work week would go that fast.  Well I am recovering fine from my root canal.  I’m a little sore but no big deal! I didn’t even take the prescribed medicine.  I really don’t like taking any kind of medicine if I don’t have to.   Funny though, when you need to eat softer type foods I tend to gravitate towards foods I can’t eat like Pizza, Hamburgers, Pita Chips, Pretzels, Nuts and more.  I rarely even eat that type of food!  It’s all in my head I know!  Well I tempted to try chicken for dinner and it worked.  I made it moist enough that it didn’t hurt to eat it!  yeah!!  That’s a recipe I’ll share with you soon!!

So Saturday night, I made another flop dessert.  This time I won’t share a picture with you because it is, well, ugly!  I wanted something sweet that I could chew and I saw a tub of cool whip in the fridge, so I thought Chocolate Silk Pie.  Well, I checked my cupboards and I had a box of Sugar Free Chocolate pudding, but it was cook and serve, not instant.  I made it according to the directions on the stove top, and I set it aside to cool.  Well I didn’t let it cool enough and I mixed in half a tub of cool whip.  The chocolate just ate it right up!  I debated about throwing it out, but I tasted it and it was good.  Creamy Chocolate!  So I put it in my homemade graham cracker crust, and topped it with the remaining cool whip.  Refrigerated it for 3 hours and I thought doesn’t look bad.  Then I cut it and it was really like a pudding mess!  But a mess that was very yummy tasting.  I’ll try the recipe again, but do it up a little better with some added twists, then I will share it with you.  Don’t you hate when you make flops?  At least this one won’t get wasted.  Well now that I rambled on and on, I shall talk about today’s recipe!

So what’s for breakfast?  Remember that big batch of butternut squash I made?  First let me tell it was the best big batch ever, I ate it everyday!  For lunch, as a dinner side and even snacking on it cold.  Well, I made the most awesome breakfast with it.  I liked it so much I bought another butternut squash so I can make it again!  Oh your wondering what the heck I could make for breakfast with butternut squash?  Just see for yourself.


I made a Butternut Squash Frittata.  Oh my was it good.  It almost reminded me of my butternut squash pizza I made a while back!

This little egg dish was so quick and easy.  I took a 10 oz. Ramekin, sprayed it with cooking spray, added 1 cup squash, 2 eggs, milk and goat cheese.  Bake for 35 minutes and it was all done!

What was nice about this dish, is that it filled me up for about 4 hours.  I love having a hearty breakfast, meaning no snacking in the morning!  If you were to have some toast, maybe some bacon, you could easily split this with another person, but then again, it tasted so good, why would you want to?

Butternut Squash Frittata

Ingredients:

1 cup butternut squash, cooked

1/2 cup egg substitute or 2 eggs

2 tbsp. non-fat milk

1 dash pepper

1/2 oz goat cheese

Cooking Spray

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350

Spray a 10 oz oven safe dish with cooking spray

Add your butternut squash

In a measuring cup add your eggs and milk. Mix until combined. Pour over butternut squash.

Sprinkle with pepper and top with cheese.

Bake in oven for 30 – 35 minutes, until middle is slightly firm

Let it cool for a few minutes

NOTE:  To make roasted butternut squash, I peeled butternut squash, cut in to bite size pieces, place on a sprayed baking sheet, add 1/4 cup sliced onion, 1/2 tbsp. olive oil, salt, pepper, cinnamon and a pinch of Cayenne Pepper, mix together with your hands.  Bake in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes, flip the squash and bake for another 15 minutes.  You can go to this link to see a step by step on how I did it.

Makes 1 serving

Here’s a picture to give you an idea what the inside looked like.  Not a great shot!

One thing I do love about the weekend is breakfast.  It’s so nice to be able to take the time to make something yummy!  During the week, it’s normally, microwaved eggs, oatmeal or yogurt.  Nothing exciting!  Did you know you could make an egg dish just like this, but place them in a muffin pan and bake them.  Then you have a grab and go breakfast for a few days.

Whats your favorite meal of the day?  For me definitely breakfast!  I love it all eggs, waffles, muffins, croissants, oatmeal, bacon, toast, pancakes and left over cold pizza!  🙂  Yum!  I’m already thinking of tomorrows breakfast and I think I am feeling pancakes coming on!!  But what kind??

Now go make yourself a wonderful breakfast and start your day off right!  Have a great day!!!  Oh, one last thing, if your interested, I updated the Trader Joe’s page with a few more items.

    This really looks delicious! Boy would my kids love to have you for their Mom or maybe their nanny because you are always cooking up something tasty & nutritious (plus you’re lots of fun too!) The yogurt parfaits with granola, oatmeal, quiche, blueberry pancakes & scones among many other things. Heck, I could use some better nutrition myself! I haven’t been cooking much at all this past year because my kitchen just isn’t conducive & lately I’ve been on a lousy schedule because of work. I am lacking energy because of my diet & the boys need better nutrition because they are growing. Thanks for all the helpful tips though ~ I’ll pull it together one of these days. 🙂 Love you!

      I have to tell you this is my favorite egg dish! I save butternut squash from dinner, just so I can make this for breakfast! I hope you enjoy it! Also, good for you on starting a healthy lifestyle! I started mine about 2 – 3 years ago and I feel so much better inside and out!!

    I just wanted to share that Silk and pudding mixes do not set up. I have made that same mistake along with several other of my friends. Not sure if it needs something in regular milk to help it congeal. Ours just stayed liquid.

Happy Wednesday! This past weekend I did a little Happy Wednesday! This past weekend I did a little furniture rearranging in my dining room. I decided to move my kitchen cart to the opposite side of my room, and I love it in its new spot. 
🍂
If you remember, I fixed the nail holes in this wall, so I could hang a normal picture. I love how centered my nail is. lol It’s the little things.
🍂
Now before anyone says anything. I covered my light switch with my picture. I never use it, so it doesn’t effect me. 
🍂
Speaking of pictures, how gorgeous is my sign from @krumpetshomedecor? It’s a fabulous size and I am calling it the moving sign. If you watched my reel last week, you will see that I used the spider side of the sign in my kitchen. I thought the fall side would be perfect in my dining room. Now I actually plan to move the sign again to my living room when I bring out the Fall bins. I have an idea in my head.
🍂
This little area of my home is what I am calling my transition from summer to fall. I have a little bit of rich end of summer colors with natural woods and my leaves. 
🍂
The falling leaves reversible sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.
🍂
What is your favorite Fall color?
.
PS. I think I got the big C 🦠. So I’ll be slow getting back to you.

Hello Everyone! I have to apologize for not to get Hello Everyone! I have to apologize for not to getting to everyone’s comments yesterday. I am still working on them. I was a little overwhelmed yesterday. Typical Monday. Plus to boot my husband got the big “C”🦠 So I have been dealing with that. 
🌼
I thought I would share with you a very simple way of styling a bowl. It would be beautiful on an entry, console or dining room table. The bowl is from the Targets Studio McGee line.
🌼
Hope you have the best day.

Happy Monday! I know this is not decor, but today Happy Monday! I know this is not decor, but today is Samuels 1st birthday. I couldn’t resist showing his first year on Earth.
🐾
If you remember, I didn’t want another dog when Sampson passed last August, but Samuel was a blessing in disguise. He has helped me heal. 
🐾
I will be back tomorrow with decor. Have a wonderful Monday!

Happy Wednesday! I have to tell you that I am so e Happy Wednesday! I have to tell you that I am so excited that we put the dog crate away. It took up so much room in the kitchen and now it looks so open. I just wish my kitchen was wide enough for an island.
👻
I didn’t lose my mind decorating for Halloween. However @krumpetshomedecor is having there Fall and Halloween launch. So much fun! The sign above the door is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. It is a gorgeous one. I just love both sides. I used the Halloween side right now  because it matches my coffee bar. Plus I feel that way when people come to my home with my dogs. lol

Happy Tuesday! I thought I would share one last lo Happy Tuesday! I thought I would share one last look at the guest bathroom before the Fall season arrives. Pretty soon it will be filled with pumpkins.
💙
I actually have not changed any of the decor in the bathroom since February of this year. I love how it looks and didn’t want to change it.
💙
The plants in the tub were in my living room, but with having puppies, they were eating them and they are poisonous, so I put them in the tub and they have survived and doing well.
💙
The rug on the floor is from @studiomoutdoor. It’s a vinyl rug that is so perfect for cleaning up after the dogs. Plus they don’t eat these rugs! Yes, they have eaten all the rugs in my house, except for the dining room rug. Sigh….
💙
Do you have a room in your house that you don’t want to redecorate because you like it the way it is?

Happy Monday! Boy this weekend flew by and I didn’t get much done around the house. Though I am slowly starting to put away some summer stuff. 
🍋
But before putting away the lemons, I had to do a summer tiered tray. I haven’t made a tiered tray in months. I love how light and bright it is. It matches my kitchen nicely.

Happy Friday Eve! So happy it’s almost the weeke Happy Friday Eve! So happy it’s almost the weekend. This Saturday we have to take the dogs to the vet. Oh man! That’s a thing. The dogs drop dead on the driveway and refuse to go in the car. They do this going there and back. It’s a comedy scene, and so embarrassing. Not fun! lol
💙
I put together a little vignette for my kitchen counter. You are probably thinking, she always shares the kitchen. It’s because I do my day job at the kitchen counter and I get all these new ideas in my head and I just have to share. 
💙
I am loving the blue with the yellow and the green. It feels light and fresh. I also love my new candle from @candleberrycandle the scent is Bergamot Amber. It maybe my favorite scent from the collection. The scent is a mix of blue amber and oak with a vibrant burst of citrus and exotic florals. 
💙
Now through July 22nd Candleberry is having a pre-sale on the new Nouveau candle line. The official launch is August 1st. If you sign up for emails you get 15% off. 
💙
Disclosure: do not burn your candles under your cabinets. I did this to show the candle. I always burn my candles in an open area.

What are your weekend plans?

Happy Wednesday! I am excited to finally share wit Happy Wednesday! I am excited to finally share with you my coffee bar. I kept starting to decorate it, then I’d get stuck and then the season would change and there it would sit for months bare. lol
☕️
I love the new look. It’s simple, has what we need and looks light and fresh. My husband actually noticed and said it was his favorite coffee bar yet. Then brings up how he hates the white fluffy stuff I use on the shelves for Christmas. I told him, I’m using the snow again this winter. He gives me the look.
☕️
The Coffee sign is from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s reversible and I think the perfect addition to my coffee bar. The color and style go fabulous with my decor pieces. 
☕️
The sign is also the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code PBANDP. The link is in my bio.

Hi Everybody! Happy #tiptuesday. I am sharing with Hi Everybody! Happy #tiptuesday. I am sharing with you a simple way to make your floral displays last longer. I learned this trick from a local florist.
🌸
Ingredients:
4 cups of water (1 liter)
3 tbsp. Sugar
2 tbsp. Distilled Vinegar

Add sugar and vinegar to water. Stir until dissolved. Add flowers. Try to take off as many leaves as possible.
🌸
The sugar nourishes the flowers and the vinegar will stop bacteria growth.
🌸
After I put this arrangement together, I decided to take out the yellow flowers and cut the bouquet down a little. I think it looks better. I bought these flowers from the farmers market.
