Zucchini, Red Pepper & Leek Frittata Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 3 medium-sized zucchinis
  • 1 large red bell pepper
  • 1 leek
  • Olive oil flavored cooking spray
  • 2 cups of egg substitute
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

Preparation Time Cooking Time Total Time
20 minutes 45 minutes 1 hour 5 minutes
  1. Prepare the Vegetables:

    • Wash and dice the zucchinis, red bell pepper, and leek.
    • Steam or microwave the diced vegetables together until they are tender. Since they have similar cooking times, they can be cooked together to save time and effort.
  2. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Ensure the oven is properly preheated before you begin cooking.
  3. Prepare the Skillet:

    • Spray a light coat of olive oil flavored cooking spray onto a heavy ovenproof skillet. This will prevent the frittata from sticking to the pan.
  4. Cook the Frittata:

    • Heat the skillet over medium heat and add half of the egg substitute.
    • Sprinkle half of the dried thyme and half of the black pepper onto the egg substitute.
    • Allow the egg substitute to cook for a few seconds until it starts to bubble around the edges.
    • Use a spatula to gently pull the cooked edges inwards and spread the uncooked egg mixture evenly over the bottom of the skillet, resembling the process of cooking an omelet.
  5. Add the Vegetables:

    • Once the egg mixture is nearly cooked, add the steamed vegetables to the skillet, spreading them evenly over the surface.
  6. Complete the Frittata:

    • Evenly pour the remaining half of the egg substitute over the vegetables in the skillet.
    • Sprinkle the remaining dried thyme and black pepper on top of the egg mixture.
  7. Bake the Frittata:

    • Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and firm to the touch.
  8. Serve:

    • Once baked, remove the frittata from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
    • Cut the frittata into slices and serve it warm.

Enjoy your delicious Zucchini, Red Pepper & Leek Frittata! This wholesome dish is perfect for any meal of the day and can be customized with your favorite herbs and seasonings. 🍽️
