Serve this healthy zucchini frittata for a delicious summer brunch! I used sweet potato greens in this recipe, but if you're not able to find them, spinach or chard would be good substitutes.

Recipe type: Breakfast, main dish
Serves: 3
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- ¼ cup Original Almond Breeze Almond Milk (Unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Handful of chopped leafy greens (sweet potato greens, or spinach)
- 1 small zucchini, sliced into thin coins
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Pinch of smoked paprika
- 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
- Handful of cherry tomatoes, halved
- Fresh herbs - sage, thyme or basil
- Sea salt & fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Whisk together eggs and almond milk with a pinch of salt. (For a fluffier frittata, I like to do this in a blender). Set aside.
- Heat an 8 or 10 inch skillet on the stove. Add a bit of olive oil, then add the chopped greens, zucchini, minced garlic, and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Cook for just a minute or so - until the greens wilt and the zucchini starts to soften. Add a pinch of paprika, stir, then add the eggs.
- Add the tomatoes, more salt & pepper. Turn the stove off and slide your pan into the oven.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until eggs are just set.
- During the last 5-ish minutes of cooking time add sage and thyme on top. (If you're using basil, add it just as the frittata comes out of the oven).
- Remove from oven, let cool for 15 minutes (or more), then slice and serve. Add more salt & pepper to taste.
Notes
If you're using a skillet larger than 10 inches, use 8 eggs instead of 6.
For a prettier frittata, add all of your veggies in 2 layers. Add the first half as written, then add the rest after your eggs have partially set in the oven. Continue cooking until eggs are fully set. (Note: this step is entirely not necessary for the actual taste).
