02 - 3/4 cup fresh or frozen peas
03 - 2 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
04 - 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

→ Eggs & Dairy

# How to Prepare:

01 - Set oven temperature to 375°F. Allow oven to fully preheat before proceeding.
02 - Melt butter in a large oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Add peas and spring onions and sauté for 2 minutes, until vegetables are bright and just tender. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted.
03 - Whisk eggs, milk or cream, chives, dill or parsley, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until fully blended.
04 - Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes, until edges begin to set while the center remains slightly runny.
05 - Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese evenly across the top.
06 - Place skillet in oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until frittata is puffed and set in the center.
07 - Remove skillet from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The frittata is so fluffy and light, your fork practically glides right through it.
  • You can swap veggies based on what's fresh, which is a secret weapon against boring brunches.
02 -
  • Pouring eggs too quickly can push veggies to the bottom—go slow and steady for even layers.
  • Letting the frittata cool before slicing gives you perfect wedges with no runny bits.
03 -
  • Cook the veggies only until vibrant—overcooking dulls both color and taste.
  • Crumbling goat cheese evenly gives delightfully tangy pockets in every slice.
