What Is A Frittata

A frittata is an Italian dish that is similar to an omelette or quiche, as it is also egg-based. It is usually enriched with extra ingredients such as protein, veggies, and cheese. The word “frittata” translates to “fried” in English.

This summer is the perfect time to make a zucchini frittata.

This recipe is so easy to make but absolutely delicious. Imagine thick and fluffy frittata loaded with thin slices of zucchini and adorned with sweet corn kernels.

I love it that I can serve frittata as a healthy breakfast, as a quick lunch, or even dinner for the entire family. It’s so easy to make and takes practically 15 minutes.
