Easy Veggie Frittata We started with some chopped broccoli and shallots (you could also use a small onion) and sauteed them for a bit to get the veggies just crisp tender. Then we added some chopped tomato and arugula (or whatever green you like such as baby spinach or kale).
The veggie prep and cooking will take you about 15 minutes and then all you have to do is add the egg mixture to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and let it start to set:
Once it starts to set and the eggs are pulling away from the edges, it gets a final sprinkle of some more feta (or not but we love the taste of melted feta! ) and it goes under the broiler for a few minutes to finish cooking and get that beautiful golden brown color.
Remove skillet, let cool and serve! We put our dinner with a simple green salad and a healthy slice of watermelon. We ate this simple summer supper out on the deck and we even had leftovers for lunch the next day.
Like we said earlier, you can substitute the veggies and feta for what you have. Cauliflower, asparagus, and carrots for example would all work in place of the broccoli and if you do not have feta or do not care for it, just use cheddar or mozzarella. The point is to make it easy and relaxed!
