Equipment
- Oven-safe skillet
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Sliced Mushrooms
- 1 cup Bell Peppers cut into thin strips
- 1 cup Zucchini cut into quarter moons
- 8 large Eggs at room temperature for best fluffiness!
- 0.25 cup Heavy Cream or Milk of Choice for a rich and creamy texture
- 0.75 tsp Sea Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black Pepper
- 0.67 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese or your favorite variety!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C).
- Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet (a cast iron skillet works wonderfully!) over medium heat. Add your sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, and zucchini. Sauté them for 6-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they're tender, slightly browned, and any extra moisture has evaporated. This step builds incredible flavor!
- While the veggies are cooking, grab a large bowl. Whisk together the 8 large eggs, ¼ cup of heavy cream or milk, ¾ teaspoon of sea salt, and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper until just combined. Remember not to overmix; a light whisk keeps the frittata airy and fluffy!
- Pour the whisked egg mixture directly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Sprinkle the ⅔ cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Give it a gentle stir to ensure everything is well distributed.
- Immediately transfer the skillet into your preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is puffy and the center is just set with a slight jiggle. Be careful not to overbake, as this can make your frittata dry.
- Carefully remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes in the skillet before slicing it into wedges. Enjoy this delicious and versatile meal!
