Ingredients
Egg Mixture
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 cup SimplyNature Organic 2% Milk
- 1 teaspoon Burman’s Dijon Mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup Happy Farms Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Vegetables and Salad
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 5 oz SimplyNature Organic Baby Spinach
- 5 spears asparagus, blanched and cut into 1 to 2 inch pieces
- SimplyNature Organic Spring Mix, for topping
- Radishes, sliced thin, for topping
- SimplyNature Balsamic Vinaigrette or balsamic glaze, for dressing
Instructions
- Prepare Egg Mixture: Preheat the oven to 500°F (or set to full broil). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir in shredded mozzarella cheese and set the mixture aside.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add chopped onions and sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until tender. Add baby spinach and blanched asparagus pieces and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes until spinach softens.
- Cook Frittata on Stovetop: Pour in the egg and cheese mixture over the cooked vegetables and reduce heat to medium. Cook undisturbed for 6 to 8 minutes until the eggs are mostly set.
- Broil Frittata: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and broil until the top turns golden brown—this should be just a few minutes. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 to 7 minutes. Top with organic spring mix, sliced radishes, and drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette or glaze. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Blanch asparagus beforehand by boiling briefly and then plunging into ice water to preserve color and texture.
- If you don’t have a broiler, you can bake the frittata at 375°F for 10-12 minutes until set and golden on top.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for best heat distribution and ease of broiling.
- Feel free to substitute mozzarella with other cheeses like feta or cheddar for different flavors.
- This recipe can be customized with additional vegetables such as bell peppers or zucchini depending on preference.
