Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 c chopped vegetables of your choice
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, mince
Optional:
- ½ c strong cheese (Parmesan, goat cheese, feta, etc)
- Additional herbs and spices
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°
- In a medium bowl, break the eggs and beat well. Add half the cheese, if using.
- In a large ovenproof skillet (about 10 inches) over medium heat, heat 1 tbsp olive oil. Saute the vegetables (reserving any greens), salt, and pepper for 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute an additional 2 minutes. Add greens and saute until just wilted.
- Increase heat to medium-high and mix in the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil. Pour egg mixture over the vegetables, shaking the pan to evenly distribute. Cook without stirring until edges begin to set, about 5 minutes.
- Top with cheese, if using, and move skillet to oven. Bake 25-30 minutes, until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Broil 1 minute to brown the top. Serve hot or cold.
