Use leftover cooked greens (which, in my experience, don't reheat so nicely) in this delicious frittata recipe! You can use spinach, Swiss chard, kale, etc.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 5 large eggs

  • 2 large egg whites

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 cup chopped red onion

  • ¼ cup grape tomatoes, halved

  • 1 cup cooked Swiss chard (thawed if frozen)

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Set an oven rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven's broiler.

  2. Beat eggs and egg whites together in a mixing bowl until smooth. Whisk in parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until evenly blended; set aside.

  3. Heat olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add onion, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; cook and stir until onion softens and turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes; cook 1 minute. Add cooked Swiss chard; cook and stir until heated through. Pour in egg mixture, cover, and cook until edges of eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  4. Cook in the preheated broiler until cheese is golden brown and center of frittata has set, about 2 minutes. Let stand before serving, 3 minutes.
