Picture this: It’s a lazy Sunday morning, the sun is gently warming the kitchen, and you’re looking for a hearty yet healthy dish to start your day right. Enter the Seasonal Vegetable Frittata – a versatile, flavor-packed dish that’s just as perfect for a cozy brunch as it is for a quick weeknight dinner. My love for frittatas began in my grandmother’s kitchen, where she’d use whatever vegetables she had on hand, teaching me the beauty of simple, seasonal cooking.
- 6 large eggs,
- 1/4 cup milk,
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (your choice),
- 2 cups seasonal vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, zucchini, spinach, tomatoes),
- 1 small onion, finely chopped,
- 2 cloves garlic, minced,
- Salt and pepper to taste,
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic, cooking until softened. Toss in the rest of the vegetables and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until just tender.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in the grated cheese.
Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet, making sure the ingredients are evenly distributed. Let cook on the stovetop over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes, until the edges start to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is slightly golden. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
