Ingredients You’ll Need

- 1/2 cup thinly sliced roasted red peppers (or steamed zucchini or yellow squash)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
- Cooking oil or unsalted butter
Cooking Up a Storm
To get started, combine the eggs and milk in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Stir in the chopped greens and half of the cheese. Heat oil or butter over medium heat in a large nonstick, ovenproof frying pan. Once the oil shimmers or the butter stops foaming, add the egg mixture to the pan and reduce the heat to medium low. Cover and cook until set, making sure there’s no visible bubbling.
Finishing Touches
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and cook until melted, or place the skillet under the broiler for a minute or two to brown the top. Use a knife to loosen the sides of the frittata, then turn it onto a cutting board and slice. Serve hot, or chill and serve cold – either way, this vibrant frittata is sure to impress!
