    Frittata is of cheap, quick-cooking high protein meal and a healthy way to use leftovers and is very nutritious. This Vegetable frittata is an easy and hearty dish and is best to serve in any meal. For breakfast, brunch or even dinner this veggie frittata is recipe is so good that we can have it any time of the day.

    Frittata in Italian means fried, basically, the frittata is an Italian omelette style dish, but it is thicker and you can add more ingredients to it. So that makes it more wholesome and more nutritious depending on what do you add.

    My way of adding more nutrition is adding a variety of veggies and for more flavorful frittata recipe nothing like fresh herbs which are always available in my balcony garden. Rosemary and Italian basil are my favourites.

     

    As I said before, in this vegetable frittata you can use any leftovers you have in your refrigerator. I had one yellow bell pepper, corn and a few florets of broccoli, so what could have been the better way to put all this to good use. I made a frittata for breakfast. It is ready in less than 30 minutes and so delicious that it is always one of my go-to dishes whenever I am in doubt.

    Nutrition in Veggie Fritatta

    At 275 calories and a whopping 20g of proteins, this veggie frittata is one of the best high protein meals you can have. This is completely gluten-free and has very less amount of carbs, so that makes it one of the low carb meals if you are following a certain dietary regimen. I like to pair it with a lite salad ( my salad recipes )  and a drink that depends entirely on the mealtime.

    I served it with my new fresh and citrusy floral infusion tea which I made with some lemon balm, orange blossom,  and oolong tea. which made it all the more delightful. We love a frittata however you serve it warm from the oven, or straight from the, it tastes excellent anyways.

    Tips Of Making a Good Vegetable Frittata
    Add some dairy product either milk or cream. I am not a great fan of using cream but I like to use skim milk and happy with the results. ¼ cup for 6 eggs is a good way to go, be careful not to add too much because it can alter the texture of the frittata.
    Veggies should be sauteed before adding to the frittata, as I said before leftovers work beautifully in any frittata, I have made the veggie version but if you like meat you can very well add meat as well, provided it is precooked.
    Try and use cast iron pan, because it stays safe in the oven and almost every time gives you the perfect result each time.
