Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped into small pieces
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta work well)
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Broccoli: In a medium, oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the broccoli florets and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in half of the shredded cheese.
- Cook the Frittata: Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli and onion in the skillet. Gently shake the skillet to spread the eggs evenly. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the stovetop until the edges begin to set.
- Add Cheese and Broil: Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil on high for 3-5 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and golden brown on top.
- Serve: Carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
Enjoy this Broccoli Frittata as a healthy, delicious meal that’s packed with flavor and texture!
