Notes

  1. You will need approximately 2 cups of vegetables to make this frittata
  2. Wait until the vegetables are cooked down before adding to egg mixture to prevent the eggs from scrambling
  3. You can either stir fry the veggies over the stove top or roast them in the oven. To roast the veggies, cut them into large chunks, drizzle with olive oil and add a little minced garlic. Don’t forget salt and pepper.
  4. Frittata is essentially a very basic egg bake and a brilliant way to use up leftover veggies. Just make sure you cook the veggies separately before adding to the egg mixture
  5. Cream can be substituted with milk. Use cream for fluffy frittata.
  6. You can replace feta with goat's cheese if you like
