Cooker Frittata Provencal is a flavorful, one-pan dish filled with fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese, offering a savory meal that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or light dinner.

Ingredients

  1. 8 large eggs
    1/2 cup milk (or heavy cream for a richer texture)
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 small onion, chopped
    1 small zucchini, sliced
    1 red bell pepper, chopped
    1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
    1/2 cup grated cheese (Gruyère, goat cheese, or Parmesan)
    1 tsp dried thyme
    1 tsp dried rosemary
    Salt and pepper, to taste
    Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Prepare the Veggies: Heat the olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet or slow cooker over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, zucchini, and bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly golden.

  1. Add the Tomatoes: Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the tomatoes start to soften and release their juices.
  2. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or cream), dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in the grated cheese.
  3. Combine and Cook: Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still slightly soft in the center. If you’re using a slow cooker, set it on low for 2-3 hours, or until the eggs are fully cooked.
  4. Finish and Serve: Once the frittata is cooked through, remove from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped basil or parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
  5. Serve: Slice and serve the frittata warm. It’s perfect with a side of mixed greens or crusty bread.

Notes

  • For extra protein, add cooked bacon, sausage, or ham to the frittata.
  • If you prefer a more filling dish, you can add more vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or eggplant.
  • Experiment with different cheeses like feta, mozzarella, or cheddar for a unique flavor.
  • This frittata can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat it gently before serving.
