Eggcellent Egg Recipes to Spice Up Your Morning

Frittata

A frittata, is a classic, egg-based meal that’s the perfect solution for a quick and healthy breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Although similar to an omelet, the way this breakfast treat is cooked is what makes it stand apart. It’s traditionally made in a cast-iron skillet or oven-safe pan and is started on the stovetop then finished in the oven. Unlike an omelet, the fillings in this dish are blended in with the eggs in the pan instead of being folded in later. If you’ve ever wondered how to make frittatas, you might be surprised to learn how fast, easy, and customizable they are. Here’s an incredible freestyle recipe you can use to mix things up each time you make the dish.

Heat three tablespoons of olive oil in a ten-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add half a cup of onions that have been cooked until softened. Whisk eight large eggs in a bowl with half a cup milk and a pinch of salt and pepper. Customize your dish by adding any ingredients you are craving, such as sautéed bell peppers, zucchini, halved grape tomatoes, diced avocado, cooked chicken, Italian sausage, cheese, wilted spinach, cooked asparagus, or cooked potatoes. Stir the ingredients and pour your mixture into the pan. Cook until the edges of the dish begin to pull away from the pan, which usually takes five to seven minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for sixteen to eighteen minutes.
