Frittata Recipe, plus 5 Variations

How To Make A Frittata

Frittatas are so simple to make!

Here’s how: Choose a recipe variation below, and start by whisking together the frittata base: a simple mixture of eggs, almond milk (or any milk), garlic, salt, and pepper. Then, sauté your veggies in a 10 or 12-inch cast iron skillet just until tender. When the veggies are ready, stir in any spices or herbs before adding the eggs. Pour in the frittata base, and shake the pan gently to distribute it among the vegetables. Sprinkle your frittata with cheese and transfer the pan to a 400-degree oven.
