Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (chopped, stems removed) Swiss chard
- 1 cup (halved) Grape or cherry tomatoes
- 8 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.33 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh basil (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Add the chopped Swiss chard and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted.
Stir in the halved grape or cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet, spreading it evenly.
Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and set in the center.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped fresh basil, if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.
