A lazy weekend morning was upon me and I didn’t have much in the way of motivation. In fact, I think it was the day after the Royal Wedding and I was still tired from waking up soooo early the day before (Pacific Standard Time, folks. What was I thinking?). Did you watch?

I was hungry but I had no interest in heading out for food. I wanted more than just cereal or yogurt, but what was a gal to do?

If I had planned better and whipped up a small batch of Blackberry-Thyme Chia Seed Jam the day before, I could have enjoyed that on toast.

Since zucchini is a staple in my kitchen this time of year, and I usually have at least several eggs in the fridge, I decided frittata was the way to go. All I had to do was toss in a bit of thyme and a few other seasonings (and Parmesan cheese — mmm!), and breakfast would be ready shortly.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3-4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped (or 1/4 teaspoon dried)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 5-6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1-2 small zucchini, ends trimmed, and sliced thin on a mandolin (or with a sharp knife)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven’s broiler.
  2. Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Add the milk and season with the thyme, salt, black pepper, and almost all the Parmesan cheese (reserve some to garnish with). Whisk to combine.
  3. Heat the oil in an 8- or 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat (an 8-inch skillet will give you a slightly thicker frittata). When hot, add the egg mixture. Add the sliced zucchini over the egg mixture. Tilt the skillet slightly in all directions to ensure the egg mixture spreads across the skillet and covers the zucchini.
  4. Cook for a few minutes, then transfer to the oven under the broiler for 3-5 minutes. Watch closely as it cooks. When the edges begin to turn golden and the egg is set, remove from the oven.
  5. Garnish with the remaining Parmesan cheese, a bit more thyme, and more black pepper.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    • Hi Rachel! I hope you love it! I think you can use your favorite milk. Many people don't use milk at all in their frittatas, so either way.... Let me know what works!
