Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheddar Vegetable Frittata.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C), setting the stage for a delicious dish.
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a microwave-safe steamer and toss in some fresh cauliflower, broccoli, and diced carrots.
Step 3
Add just a splash of water to help them steam, then pop them in the microwave for about 3 minutes, or until they’re crisp-tender.
Step 4
Once they’re ready, drain any excess water to keep your dish from getting soggy.
Step 5
Next, lightly spray a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray to ensure your creation comes out easily.
Step 6
Spread the vibrant, steamed vegetables evenly across the bottom of the pan, creating a colorful base for your dish.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, beat some eggs until they’re light and lemony in color, then stir in shredded Cheddar cheese, half-and-half, salt, and pepper until everything is beautifully combined.
Step 8
Pour this creamy egg mixture over the vegetables, letting it seep in and embrace all those flavors.
Step 9
Now, it’s time to bake! Place your pie pan in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top has turned a lovely golden hue.
Step 10
As it bakes, your kitchen will fill with a delightful aroma that promises a tasty meal ahead.
Step 11
Enjoy the anticipation as you wait for your delicious vegetable pie to be ready!.
