Vegetable Frittata with Cheese

Mary Anne Chadbourne September 17, 2021

On vacation in a small town, my husband and I went to a little cafe. The Vegetable Frittata with Cheese was the special of the day. Lynn loves egg dishes that contain vegetables and cheese. Omelets are usually his favorite. The waitress explained that this menu item is not folded over like the omelet, rather it is placed in a baking dish with all the ingredients combined together.

After sampling this frittata, I noticed that it was very tasty and much healthier than an omelet. Now for our special breakfasts on the weekend, the frittata is on the menu. This recipe can be easily doubled to share with another couple for breakfast.
