Broccoli Frittata
25 September 2025
A Frittata is an Italian open-faced, crustless egg dish, similar to a quiche or omelet, where the eggs are mixed with ingredients like cheese, meat, and vegetables. In this iteration there is one bowl, minimal ingredients, easy clean-up, and tasty perfection. That’s what this breakfast suggestion is, not so much a recipe, but an idea that can be tweaked to the moment with available ingredients - in this case, broccoli with salt, pepper, and generous amounts of olive oil.
