Ingredients

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚F).
  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tsp (10 mL) olive oil in a skillet and sauté onions until lightly browned. Add mushrooms and squash and cook on medium heat until soft, approximately 10 minutes. Let vegetables cool slightly.
  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk and salt together. Stir in the cooked vegetables, peppers, parsley and grated mozzarella. Use remaining 2 tsp (10 mL) olive oil to coat a 8-inch (1.5-litre) baking dish.
  4. Step 4

    Pour mixture into dish. Arrange the sweet and red potato slices on top, alternating or in a decorative pattern, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  5. Step 5

    Bake for 30 minutes or just until eggs set. Frittata can be served in wedges with a salad on the side.

Tips

  • Use frozen or pre-cut vegetables. Frozen vegetables are as nutritious as fresh produce because they are usually flash-frozen at harvest time.
