Ingredients

• 8 large eggs
• 1 medium, diced zucchini
• 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
• 2 cups, loosely packed baby spinach
• 1 small, finely chopped white onion
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Whisk them together until well blended. Season with sea salt and black pepper, then set aside.

Step 3

In an oven-safe skillet (10-inch works well), heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 6

Add the diced zucchini and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

Stir in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly across the skillet. Pour the whisked eggs over the vegetables, tilting the skillet slightly to distribute the eggs evenly.

Step 9

Allow the frittata to cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, just until the edges start to set.

Step 10

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the center of the frittata is firm and cooked through.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from the oven (use oven mitts as the handle will be hot!) and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, slice into wedges, and serve warm. Enjoy your SCD Gluten-Free Vegetable Frittata!
