Tips for the Perfect Frittata
- Don't Overcook: Keep an eye on your frittata; it's done when the center is just set but still looks slightly moist. This ensures a creamy texture rather than a rubbery one.
- Embrace Customization: While spinach, mushrooms, and bell pepper are fantastic, feel free to swap in other favorites! Asparagus, zucchini, or cherry tomatoes work beautifully. You can also experiment with different cheeses like feta, cheddar, or Parmesan for a unique flavor profile.
- Serving Suggestions: This easy frittata recipe is wonderful on its own, but it also pairs perfectly with a fresh green salad, a side of roasted potatoes, or some crusty bread. For brunch, add a fruit salad and mimosas!
