SPANISH FRITTATA WITH HERBY YOGURT AND GREENS
The potatoes are what make this the love child of a Spanish tortilla and an Italian frittata. But you don't necessarily need them. Fill this frittata with 2 cups of whatever leftover cooked vegetables you have in your fridge and drop "Spanish" from the name. Serve with a crisp green salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix yogurt, herbs, garlic, lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a small bowl.
- Lightly whisk eggs and remaining 1 tsp. salt in a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup yogurt sauce and stir just a couple of times (do not completely incorporate yogurt sauce).
- Heat oil in a 10" cast-iron or oven-safe nonstick pan over medium. Add shallots and potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots have softened and potatoes are golden, about 3 minutes. Add greens and cook, stirring occasionally, just until warmed through and wilted if greens were raw. Add egg mixture and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until sides are just beginning to set, 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer pan to oven and bake frittata until puffed and set, 18-20 minutes. Immediately slide onto a cutting board to cool.
- Cut frittata into 4 wedges and serve with remaining yogurt sauce alongside.
BAKED FRITTATA WITH GREEN PEPPERS AND YOGURT
This is an Iranian-style omelet. Iranian cooks often add saffron and yogurt to their omelets, which they bake or make on top of the stove. The beautiful bright yellow frittata will puff in the oven and then settle as it cools.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Beat the eggs and egg whites in a mixing bowl until smooth. Whisk in the parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until evenly blended; set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook and stir until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, and cook an additional minute. Add the cooked Swiss chard; cook and stir until the Swiss chard is hot. Pour in the egg mixture, cover, and cook until the edges of the egg have set, about 5 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your frittata.

- Serve the frittata with a variety of toppings. Some popular options include cheese, salsa, avocado, and sour cream.
- Make sure to grease the baking dish before adding the frittata mixture. This will prevent it from sticking.
- You can use any type of milk in this recipe. Whole milk will make the frittata richer, while skim milk will make it lighter.
- You can also add other vegetables to this recipe, such as zucchini, broccoli, or bell peppers.
- If you don't have green garlic, you can use regular garlic. Just use a little less, as it is more pungent.
