A light and satisfying frittata featuring fresh spring vegetables and creamy goat cheese, perfect for brunch, lunch, or a quick dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ½ cup peas, fresh or frozen
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup baby spinach, loosely packed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (chives or parsley), chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup milk or cream (whole milk or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add asparagus and peas, cooking for 4-5 minutes until tender but still crisp.
  3. Add green onions and spinach, stirring for another 2 minutes until spinach wilts. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk 8 eggs with ¼ cup milk or cream until light and frothy. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Gently stir to distribute evenly.
  6. Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese and fresh herbs evenly on top.
  7. Cook on stovetop over medium heat without stirring for 3-4 minutes until edges start setting but center remains slightly runny.
  8. Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until puffed, golden on top, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for even cooking. Avoid overcooking vegetables to keep them tender but crisp. If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil and continue baking. Let the frittata rest before slicing for neater pieces. Can substitute asparagus with zucchini and goat cheese with feta or plant-based alternatives for dairy-free option.
