GARDEN VEGETABLE FRITTATA Light, fluffy and delicious, a frittata is possibly THE perfect brunch dish. Check out Momma Cuisine’s simple and easy take on this dish. 5-6 eggs, beaten 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 teaspoon of fresh cracked pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 small yellow onion, diced 1-2 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 cup sliced zucchini 1 Roma tomato, diced 1. Beat the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and some fresh cracked pepper and set aside. Heat a skillet to mediumhigh heat with olive oil. Add the onions and garlic and sauté until the onions become soft and translucent. Add the dried oregano and sauté. 2. Add the zucchini and toss. Add the Roma (plum) tomatoes and cook until the juices from the tomatoes make a light sauce in the pan. Add the rest of the salt and toss.Take the vegetable mixture and pour it into the bowl with the beaten eggs. Add about 1-2 teaspoons olive oil to the pan and add the egg mixture in the pan. 3. With a wooden spoon or spatula, lift the sides of the frittata, allowing the liquid from the egg drip over the sides. Continue that process about 2-3 times. 4. Slowly slide the frittata on a round plate and flip to cook the other side. Or you can heat the oven to 325 degrees and finish cooking the frittata in the oven for about 10 minutes. Make sure you frying pan or sauté pan is oven safe.
