The Russian supermarket isn’t my favorite place in the world. Someone always hits me with a shopping cart without apologizing. Bread and meat are cheap but the box of cereal I want is outrageously expensive. My dad spends half an hour salivating over the beer selection (okay, I’m guilty of this too).
But sometimes, I wonder off and find something I haven’t seen there before. This week, it was spicy chorizo:
I was curious, and rightly so. It made for a great frittata addition.
Spicy Chorizo & Vegetable Frittata
- 4 large eggs (or egg substitute of your choice)
- 3 TBL of milk
- 1 TBL olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ~1 cup broccoli, cut into small pieces
- ~1 cup spinach
- 1/2 cup chorizo, cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- ~1 TBS dill (or more. I’m a dill addict)
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 325F
- In an oven safe skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
- Add onion and garlic, followed by salt and pepper. Saute for 3-5 minutes.
- Add chorizo and broccoli, cook for 5-6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine eggs and milk in another bowl, beat lightly.
- Add spinach to the chorizo & veggie mixture, cook for a few minutes.
- Add cheese and dill to egg mixture, pour in skillet and even out.
- Let cook for about 3-5 minutes until egg is set around the edges of skillet.
- Place in oven on medium rack and cook for 10-15 minutes, until eggs are fully set and cheese melted.
- Let cool and enjoy warm or cold. Also delicious with some serious hot sauce!
I got leftovers for days.
Have you picked up something new at your supermarket lately?

That frittata looks amazing. I’ve been trying out a lot of different leek-like vegetables lately in my quest to make some potato-leek soup. Everytime I go I buy the wrong veggie. I’m bring a picture of leeks with me next time!
Yum. Chorizo in a frittata sounds amazing.
Oh man…this looks DELISH!! I LOVE chorizo…mmm.
I just bought ricotta cheese a few days ago and have been going to town with it. So versatile!
Lol! I was there last night too and noticed they got some new stuff but didn’t feel like experimenting with it, thanks for doing it for me.
Something I definitely need to do more often is buy ONE new thing. I did buy and acorn squash and cooked it in a new way last week, so that was a good step.
i don’t remember the last new thing I picked up at the store! i should do that soon.
i love frittatas, and this one looks great
I haven’t picked it up yet, but all the fruit stands near where i live sell star fruit…which I’ve had once, in Australia. i want to try them again!
