Chef's Note

For the best texture, don't overmix your eggs - beat them just until the whites and yolks are combined. This creates a tender, fluffy frittata rather than a dense one. You can also prep all vegetables the night before to make this a quick morning meal.

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil

  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives

  • 1/2 cup feta cheese

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • 2

    Dice 1 medium red bell pepper, 1 small zucchini, and 1/2 medium yellow onion into small, uniform pieces. Mince 2 cloves of garlic. Halve 1 cup of cherry tomatoes. Chop 2 tablespoons of fresh basil and 1 tablespoon of fresh chives.

  • 3

    In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.

  • 4

    Add the diced bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes until slightly softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  • 5

    Add 2 cups of baby spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

  • 6

    In a large bowl, whisk together 8 eggs, 1/3 cup of 2% milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano until well combined.

  • 7

    Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the vegetable mixture in the skillet.

  • 8

    Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, ensuring it's evenly distributed. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese on top.

  • 9

    Cook on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes until the edges begin to set.

  • 10

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, until the frittata is puffed and the center is just set.

  • 11

    Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the chopped fresh basil and chives.

  • 12

    Cut the frittata into wedges and serve warm.
