Better Than Omelets? Our 13 Best Frittata Recipes

If the thought of flipping an omelet freaks you out, consider the frittata instead. This open-face egg creation skips the drama and delivers the satisfying flavors of a well-stuffed omelet. Because the frittata is typically finished in the oven, it’s also a super chill way to start the day. Serve your masterpiece with a salad on the side, or a mess of crispy potatoes, or, better yet, both.

Very Good Veggies

Custard-y eggs make a perfect canvas for all sorts of veggies, from summer tomatoes and zucchini to squash and delicate greens.
Pro tip: Vegetables with high water content should be sauteed first, so the moisture evaporates and the veggies slightly caramelize. No need to remove the cooked veggies from the pan. Just add the beaten egg mixture and give the skillet a shake to distribute the liquid.
