Frittatas are like omelets but better. They’re just as easy to make but more versatile, and this is a great meal prep option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. In addition, they’re a great way to use leftover vegetables, and they taste even better the next day. This blog post will provide a recipe for a delicious vegetable frittata that is perfect for any occasion or make-ahead meal.
This vegetable frittata has a Tex-Mex influence; as I was cleaning up the pantry, I found some taco seasoning, and I knew this would taste great. To make a frittata:
- Whisk together eggs, milk, and cheese (set aside).
- Add your favorite vegetables to a skillet and cook until softened.
- Add the egg and milk mixture over the vegetables and cook in the oven until set.
That’s it!
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup shredded fat-free cheddar (you can use any cheese of your choice)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella
- 1 cup mushrooms, chopped
- 1 medium-sized zucchini, chopped
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning
- 2 tbsp water
- Cooking oil
Toppings (optional but recommended)
- Sour cream
- Cotija cheese
- Cholula (of your choice of hot sauce)
What you’ll need:
- Foil (to cover the frittata in the oven for cooking)
- Baking dish or cast iron
- Whisk or fork (to help whisk the eggs)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Wash and prep the mushroom and zucchini.
- In a skillet, sauté mushrooms and cook for about 3-5 minutes. Then add the zucchini, taco seasoning, and water and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
- Whisk together the eggs, almond milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Once the vegetables are done, transfer them over to a baking dish. Then pour over the egg mixture on top. Add the fat-free cheese, and cover with a foil. Bake at 350F for 25-28 minutes.
- Once done, add shredded mozzarella to the frittata and finish baking uncovered for 5-8 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
- Serve with sour cream, cotija cheese, and Cholula hot sauce.
FYI:
Check the egg mixture; if it’s too runny, cover it with foil and cook for another (3-5 minutes) before adding the mozzarella cheese.
