Ingredients:

Frittata
  • 6 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 1 ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • ¾ cup diced onions
  • ½ lb. Idaho® fingerling potatoes, thinly sliced
  • ¾ cup diced red bell pepper (about 1/2 a medium pepper)
  • 1 cup diced zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
  • ½ peas (fresh or frozen)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto
  • 2 oz. (½ cup) sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 oz. (⅔ cup) roasted red peppers

  5. Pour egg mixture into the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 2 more minutes.
  6. Place skillet in the oven and bake for 8 to 9 minutes, until the eggs are set.
