SUN-DRIED TOMATO & ROASTED PEPPER FRITTATA - VEGAN



Sun-Dried Tomato & Roasted Pepper Frittata - Vegan image

This is a delicious vegan version of the classic Italian omelette. The sundried tomatoes REALLY add a wonderful depth of flavor in this. Feel free to try different veggies in this too. Chopped broccoli, asparagus or spinach would be a nice substitute for the roasted peppers. NOTE: I have made this and skipped the broiling step. Just leave in the oven another 5-10 minutes to make sure it's firm.

Tips:

  • Select Fresh Asparagus: Choose firm, bright green asparagus spears with tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have woody ends.
  • Properly Clean and Trim Asparagus: Rinse the asparagus spears under cold water. Snap off the tough, woody ends by bending each spear until it naturally breaks.
  • Slice Asparagus Diagonally: Cut the asparagus spears diagonally into 1-inch pieces. This will help them cook evenly and add visual interest to your frittata.
  • Use Good Quality Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Look for sun-dried tomatoes that are plump, flavorful, and have a deep red color. Avoid sun-dried tomatoes that are dry or brittle.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: The key to a perfect frittata is to cook the eggs until they are just set. Overcooked eggs will become rubbery and tough.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh herbs like basil, parsley, or chives over the frittata. This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

The combination of asparagus, sun-dried tomatoes, and eggs in this frittata creates a delicious and satisfying meal. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it's also a great option for meal prepping. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this frittata is sure to impress your family and friends.
