Healthy Vegetable Frittata is a light and protein-rich dish packed with colorful vegetables and fluffy baked eggs. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a simple weeknight dinner, it’s nourishing and versatile.

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or feta cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the diced onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened.
  5. Stir in the bell pepper and zucchini, cooking for another 3–4 minutes until slightly tender.
  6. Add the spinach and cook until wilted.
  7. Spread the vegetables evenly in the skillet and pour the egg mixture over the top.
  8. Sprinkle cherry tomatoes and cheese evenly across the surface.
  9. Cook on the stovetop for 2–3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
  10. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
  11. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Cook high-moisture vegetables thoroughly before adding eggs to prevent a watery texture.
  • Omit cheese and use dairy-free milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Add cooked turkey sausage or diced chicken for extra protein.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat gently to maintain a tender texture.
