Ingredients
8 large eggs (can substitute 2 egg whites for one egg)
1/3 cup of whole milk
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 bunch broccolini, largely chopped
1 medium shallot, sliced
8 oz mushrooms, sliced (I used baby bella)
1/4 to 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbles
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped (or chiffonade)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine the eggs, milk, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and mustard in a medium mixing bowl, and whisk together until the egg is fully mixed. Set aside.
In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat olive oil on medium-high heat and saute the broccolini, shallot, and mushrooms until softened about 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off the heat and pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet (see Notes 1 & 3). Top with feta cheese.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until evenly cooked. To tell it is done insert a knife into the center until it comes out clean (see Notes 2).
Cut into squares or slices and serve with a salad, roasted potatoes, or a favorite toast!
Notes
- If you prefer to cook the eggs partially on the stovetop, let the eggs set after cooking for 1-2 minutes. Transfer the cast iron skillet to the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes. Add additional time by 3-5 minutes as needed until it is fully cooked in the center.
2. The frittata should be firm and not be runny or able to jiggle in the middle.
3. If you prefer to cook the frittata in a baking dish (as I did above), transfer the sauteed vegetables to the baking dish and pour the egg mixture over it. Top with feta. For a larger baking dish, such as a 9 x 13, your cooking time will be closer to 25-30 minutes.
