Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup red onion chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 cup frozen kale chopped
  • 1/2 cup asparagus chopped
  • 5 large eggs lightly beaten
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp Italian seasonings
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt and black pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°
  • Over medium-low heat, heat oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet.
  • Add onion, parsley, kale, and asparagus. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the vegetables soften. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl whisk eggs, almond milk, Italian seasonings, garlic powder, salt and black pepper.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the cast iron skillet, making sure eggs cover the vegetable mixture. Add cherry tomatoes and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Bake it for about 15 minutes or until frittata is completely cooked. The center should be set, and not jiggly. (If you like your frittata a little bit browned and crispier on top, you can turn the broiler on high for the final 3 minutes and broil the frittata until it is golden on top.  Keep a close eye on it so that it does not burn.)
  • Serve warm with a delicious salad. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Make sure not to over bake the frittata as the egg will become rubbery in texture.
  • Chop up the veggies as evenly as possible so they distribute evenly in the egg mixture.
  • If you do not have a cast iron skillet, transfer the mixture to a baking dish. 
  • To store: Store leftover egg frittata in an airtight glass container for up to 3 days in the fridge. You can also use a silicone or Ziploc bag to store them.
  • To reheat: Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds if they were in the fridge or for 1 to 2 minutes (depending on the microwave) if they were in the freezer.
  • To freeze: Transfer the egg frittata to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
