What is A Frittata?

Basically, a frittata is a crustless quiche. It’s simply a baked egg dish and can include any fillings, spices, or flavorings you like. From greens to meat to cheese and more, you really can put together any combination with eggs and a bit of milk and turn it into a delicious frittata.

This recipe also happens to be an excellent way to use leftover ingredients before they go bad. So next time you clean out the fridge, toss everything in your crisper drawer into an eggy frittata, and you’ll have a feast to enjoy for any meal.

How To Make Spring Vegetable Frittata

Simply prep your veggies, roast them, and combine everything together before whisking up your eggs! Then, transfer everything into a skillet or baking pan, and let the oven work its magic. Voila!

Ingredients

The first step in making this spring vegetable frittata is to roast the veggies. You'll need:

• Broccolini. You could also use regular broccoli.
• Asparagus. I like to get organic asparagus from the farmer's market.
• Olive oil. Feel free to use your favorite high-quality EVOO. My fave tried and trusted brand is California Olive Ranch.
• Salt + pepper. To taste.

For the frittata, you'll need:

• Eggs. This big-batch recipe uses a full carton of eggs.
• Almond milk. Make your own using this easy no-soak method. Or feel free to use a different plant-based milk if you prefer. Just stick to unsweetened.
• Seasonings. This frittata is flavored with dried parsley, garlic powder, and dried dill.
• Green peas. You can use fresh or frozen.
• Parmesan. Pecorino Romano will also work.

TO ROAST THE VEGGIES:

Tips & Tricks

• STORAGE: Leftovers can be stored in a tightly sealed container + refrigerated for 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven when ready to serve.
