Garden Veggie Frittata with Chives and Parmesan

This is a great recipe to incorporate veggies currently thriving in your garden or at the local produce stand.

8 eggs, well beaten
1 T olive oil (more or less, depending on your pan)
3 cups chopped garden veggies (I used zucchini, spinach, roma tomatoes and about 1/2 an onion)
1 tsp. Spike Seasoning (or use any seasoning mix that goes well with vegetables)
Fresh ground pepper to taste
2 T chopped chives
1/2 cup parmesan cheese


Garden Veggie Frittata
Preheat broiler if you're planning to brown the top of the frittata.

Heat olive oil in pan, then add chopped zucchini, green bell pepper, and onion. Season vegetables with Spike Seasoning and black pepper and cook about 5 minutes, until just starting to soften. Add 2 T chives and cook about 1 minute more.

Pour in eggs, lower heat and cook 5 minutes. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, cover pan, and cook 5-7 minutes more, or until eggs are set and frittata is slightly puffed up. If you want to brown the top, place frittata under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, turning as needed, until top is lightly browned.

Serve hot, sprinkled with chopped chives if desired. Makes 6 servings.
