    Healthy Vegetable Frittata

    This Healthy Vegetable Breakfast Frittata dish is packed with loads of extra veggies so you can get at least one portion out of 5-a-day needed. Easy to make during busy weeknights and require less than 30 minutes of your time. 

    It’s an easy recipe that requires simply throwing all the veggies into whisked eggs and milk and then baking it in a round cake pan or baking dish.

    There is a skip-to-recipe button in the top left corner along with a clickable table of contents list (just below) that will quickly take you to the part you are more interested in. Enjoy!

    I even sometimes have it for dinner or eat it cold in a sandwich. A great recipe if you’re especially lazy to cook during weekends like me 🙂

    So what is a frittata?

    It is made by blending eggs with milk or cream and then cooking on the pan or baking in the oven until it sets. It is similar to a quiche but without the crust or like scrambled eggs, loaded with plenty of healthy veggies and meats.

    The word frittata is actually Italian and roughly translates to "fried."

    How do you make a frittata?

    It could never be easier! You can do it both methods either stovetop or baked. 

    • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
    • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, and then add milk or heavy cream, salt, and pepper. 
    • Follow with cheese.
    • In a medium pan, add onion, garlic, cook for a few minutes and then add mushrooms. When mushrooms cooked, add spinach and cook until spinach reduced in size. Set aside.
    • In the same pan, cook bacon.
    • Add the veggies and bacon to the 8 or 9-inch cake pan and pour in the egg mixture. 
    • Add green onions and give it a good stir.
    • Finally, add in the cherry tomatoes.
    • Bake for 15 minutes until top golden brown.
    • Take out of the oven and let it sit for few minutes.
    • Top with fresh herbs and enjoy this healthy vegetable frittata!

    Notes

    • You can also top your frittata with some crumbled goat, feta or cotija cheese.
    • With this recipe you can also prepare frittata muffins.
    • Add some spicy sauce, sriracha sauce to your baked frittata! So good!

    More Savory Breakfast Ideas

    How do you know when frittata is done?

    Cook the frittata in the oven just until the center is no longer jiggly and the edges are golden-brown. For extra reassurance, you can place a toothpick into the center of the frittata.

    Frittata variations

    What else can you add to your healthy vegetable frittata? Well, the options are endless, really but here’s few of my favorite combinations.

    • Spinach, ham, and cheese
    • Butternut and kale frittata
    • Broccoli, chorizo, and cheese
    • Zucchini and mushrooms
    • Spinach and potatoes
    • Mushroom frittata
    • Green frittata: Asparagus and spinach, kale, zucchini
    • Mushrooms, asparagus, and spinach with crumbled feta of cotija cheese on top for garnish.
    • Salmon and smoked cheese
