instructions
    1

    Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

    2

    Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into small florets. Set aside.

    3

    Chop the onion finely and heat the olive oil in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until translucent.

    4

    Add the broccoli to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly tender.

    5

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

    6

    Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed broccoli and onion in the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes, or until the edges start to set.

    7

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden brown on top.

    8

    Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges.

How to be creative
  • Add sun-dried tomatoes for a tangy flavor.
  • Incorporate feta cheese instead of parmesan for a different taste.
  • Top with fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an aromatic finish.
Important Tips
  • Make sure to not overcook the broccoli to retain its bright color and nutrients.
  • Using a non-stick skillet helps the frittata release easily for perfect slices.
  • Feel free to experiment with additional vegetables like bell peppers or spinach.
