Here’s what you need to prepare this delicious and nutritious Vegetable Sheet Pan Frittata:
Eggs: 8 large
Zucchini (thinly sliced): 1 small (about 5 oz | 140 g)
Yellow Squash (thinly sliced): 1 small (about 5 oz | 140 g)
Red Bell Pepper (diced): 1/2 cup (75 g)
Cherry Tomatoes (halved): 1/2 cup (75 g)
Spinach (chopped): 1 cup (30 g)
Red Onion (thinly sliced): 1/4 cup (40 g)
Cheddar Cheese (shredded): 1 cup (100 g)
Mozzarella Cheese (shredded): 1/2 cup (50 g)
Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons (30 ml)
Garlic Powder: 1 teaspoon (5 g)
Italian Seasoning: 1 teaspoon (5 g)
Salt and Pepper: To taste
Fresh Parsley (for garnish): 2 tablespoons (optional)
Step-by-Step Guide:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Vegetables
In a large mixing bowl, toss the vegetables together:
Zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and red onion.
Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Season with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.
Toss everything until the vegetables are evenly coated in the oil and seasoning.
Step 3: Whisk the Eggs
In a separate bowl, crack 8 large eggs and whisk until they are smooth and fully combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese. This will ensure the eggs bake up creamy and cheesy, adding richness to the vegetables.
Step 4: Assemble the Frittata
Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly across the lined baking sheet. Make sure the vegetables are evenly distributed for consistent cooking.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, allowing it to spread and fill the gaps between the vegetables. The eggs should cover most of the vegetables, but it’s okay if some pieces stick out—this adds to the frittata’s visual appeal.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check to see if the frittata is done by ensuring the eggs are set and the top is a beautiful golden brown.
If the frittata still looks a little jiggly in the center, give it another minute or two until fully cooked through.
The vegetables should be tender but still retain a slight bite, and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to set.
