HOW TO MAKE A FRITTATA | Easy Veggie Frittata Recipe

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor, while processed cheese is often cheaper.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is healthier, while vegetable oil is typically less expensive.

Prep the vegetables by chopping red and green bell peppers and half of a yellow onion into a rough chop.

Roughly chop baby spinach, ensuring not to chop too fine.

Grate about a fourth of a block of cheese and set aside the rest for later.

In a large 12-inch cast iron skillet, heat a little avocado oil and add some butter.

Sauté the chopped bell peppers and onions for about 4 to 5 minutes until softened.

Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and stir, allowing it to cook down.

Season the vegetables with salt and pepper.

In a bowl, whisk together 10 eggs, a little salt, pepper, and half and half until mixed well.

Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet.

Sprinkle the grated cheese over the egg and vegetable mixture.

Cook on medium to medium-low heat for about 1-2 minutes to allow the edges to set slightly.

Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F (204°C) and bake for 20 minutes.

Remove the frittata from the oven; it should have a golden brown crust and may be puffy in the center.

Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing and serving.
