I took ingredients that I already had in the fridge and decided to make a frittata. I did not have a recipe but was very pleased with the end product. I cooked it in a 12-inch cast iron skillet so clean up was easy!

The egg and vegetable medley in this simple frittata is divine. The eggs are soft and creamy. All the veggies pair well together and the Italian seasoning packs a punch of flavor. Quick and easy, this frittata is great for breakfast, brunch or even dinner.
