Skillet Frittata For One

Chelsea Mills • October 5, 2024

Fun weekend breakfast bake

In the original recipe for this Fritatta, it had you starting out on the stovetop and moving into the oven. I ended up cooking all the vegetables under the broiler instead of on top of the stove. I also served with avocado, fresh herbs and salsa.


Makes One 5" Skillet


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tsp butter, ghee, coconut oil
  • 1-2 cups vegetables of your choice
  • 1 cup leafy greens
  • 1/2 cup pre-cooked meat (optional)
  • 2-3 eggs whisked
  • 1 pinch salt + pepper


DIRECTIONS

  1. To start, turn on your oven’s broiler or grill to preheat.
  2. Choose your selections of vegetables – anything you like – and chop them up. 
  3. Melt your fat in a pan + add the veggies that take the longest to cook (potatoes, broccoli, etc.). Sauté under the broiler until tender. Add cooked meat if using
  4. Add any other soft veggies that need a quick cook like spinach or pepper, place back under the broiler.
  5. Beat your eggs together in a bowl with salt + pepper.
  6. Add your eggs to the pan with your vegetables. Swirl the pan + press down the veggies until you have one even layer, covered in egg.
  7. Put the entire pan into the oven, under the grill or broiler for 3-4 minutes or until the egg is puffy, set, and slightly golden brown on top.


*** To make this a family frittata, simply triple or quadruple the ingredients and use a larger skillet.

Please, please, please make this your own! The combination possibilities are endless, and there really isn’t a wrong way to do it!

This is a recipe I found in 2011 from Real Simple and thought sounded fantastic. I finally got around to making it and it was incredibly easy and tasted wonderful too.
Acorn Squash

Acorn squash is so easy to prepare and is a great side dish, especially if you are looking to cut calories. If you are not looking to cut calories, you can add brown sugar, butter and cinnamon to the squash before baking.
