Ingredients
  

  • 8 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or your preferred type
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the skillet
  • Fresh herbs for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • If using raw vegetables, sauté them in a skillet with a little olive oil until softened.

  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Grease a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with cooking spray or olive oil.
  • Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet.
  • Add the chopped vegetables and cooked protein evenly over the eggs.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the vegetables and protein.
  • Place the skillet over medium heat and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges of the frittata start to set.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and the top is lightly golden brown.
  • Once baked, remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool in the skillet for a few minutes. Use a spatula to loosen the edges of the frittata from the skillet.
  • Slice the frittata into wedges and serve warm.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
