Most frittatas are made on the stove in iron skillets or non stick frying pans.
This one is an oven baked frittata recipe and made in a quiche dish (see Equipment list).
If you don't have a quiche dish you can easily make this in an ovenproof skillet / oven proof frying pan / cast iron pan or other suitable oven baking dish.
Once baked, what you end up with is a delicious veggie stuffed egg dish, resembling a thick golden crusted cheesy omelette.
This oven baked vegetable frittata recipe is low in calories at just 109 calories per serving. Assuming you are serving 8 people with it.
It's similar to a quiche but is a healthier option because it doesn't have a crust.
A frittata is essentially a crustless quiche and is suitable for vegetarians or those on a low-carb or gluten-free diet.
It's a great source of protein as well as vitamin A and C.
Frittatas make wonderful healthy breakfasts and if I'm enjoying a lie in they're often one of my go-to easy recipes that I'll choose for a leisurely weekend.
My oven baked vegetable frittata only requires 15 minutes prep time and 30 minutes baking time.
So whilst it's baking in the oven, smelling amazing, you can get on with other things. Like chopping up a simple side salad to go with it!

Sherry M
i love baked frittata and make it quite often. you can use up all the stuff in your fridge:) and it's so easy to make too.
Neil
Absolutely Sherry. Like you I frequently use up all the leftover veggies in our fridge by making some kind of frittata!
David @ Spiced
I do enjoy quiches and frittatas, but for some reason I don't make them all that often. I need to change that! As Sherry said, this is a great way to use up extra bits of veggies that might be hanging around in the fridge. Yum!
Neil
I make more quiches in summer because they're great for picnics and light salad dinners. I make more frittatas in winter because things seem to go off quicker and I'm more lazy in winter. Ha ha! Thanks David!
Ben | Havocinthekitchen
Oh, I haven't had a frittata for a long time, and now I'm craving it! 🙂 This looks absolutely delicious - great combination of flavours/textures and perfectly browned top!
Neil
Thanks Ben. It's great to bake it in the oven as a change to baking it on the stovetop. The golden browned top is delicious!
Michelle
Great way of making the frittata in the oven! The best meal to get rid of any fridge leftovers too 🙂
Neil
It's amazing what you can create with fridge leftovers isn't it Michelle? Saturday nights are often when I chuck whatever is left in the fridge into one big oven baked vegetable frittata!
