Method
Prepare the Oven and Skillet
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If your skillet is not naturally non-stick, lightly grease a 9-10 inch oven-safe skillet with a little olive oil or butter.
Sauté Aromatics
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Cook Vegetables
- Add the diced bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender-crisp. Stir in the chopped spinach and cherry tomatoes, cooking just until the spinach wilts, about 1-2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Prepare Egg Mixture
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the large eggs, milk (or half-and-half), salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy. Stir in half of the crumbled feta cheese.
Assemble Frittata
- Evenly spread the cooked vegetables in the bottom of the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Sprinkle the remaining feta cheese over the top.
Bake the Frittata
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden brown on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Rest and Serve
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh chopped chives, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Storage: Leftover frittata can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It's excellent served cold or gently reheated.
Variations: Feel free to substitute any of your favorite vegetables! Broccoli florets, mushrooms, asparagus, or sun-dried tomatoes work wonderfully. For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of cream cheese or sour cream to the egg mixture.
Meal Prep Tip: Bake this frittata on a Sunday and portion it into individual servings for quick breakfasts or lunches throughout the week.
