Ingredients
Egg Mixture
- 6 large large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (a creamy cheddar and goat cheese blend)
Vegetables and Herbs
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 small zucchini, diced
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup fresh herbs (basil, parsley, and chives), chopped
Other Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir in the shredded cheese, diced zucchini, halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, and fresh herbs until well combined.
Cooking
- In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
- Allow the frittata to cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges.
Notes
Be careful not to overcook the frittata as it will continue to cook after being removed from the oven. For a healthier option, consider using egg whites or a lower-fat milk alternative. Experiment with different vegetables and cheeses based on your preference.
