These easy vegetarian frittatas with quinoa, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, and mozzarella come together in a cinch - and taste amazing. They freeze perfectly for future grab-and-go breakfasts, too.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups cooked quinoa*
5 large eggs
1 cup + 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves (minced)
1/2 cup minced onion
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
12 cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12-cup, standard-size muffin tin with liners and grease well with non-stick cooking spray or an oil mister.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the quinoa, eggs, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, basil, onion, salt, and pepper until all ingredients are well-incorporated.
  • Divide mixture equally between muffin tins (I use an ice cream scoop).
  • Sprinkle each with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Push a cherry tomato about halfway into the top of each.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes until egg is set and frittatas are golden around the edges.

I love that these frittatas are made with quinoa. It makes them a healthier option than traditional frittatas.

The frittatas were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

The frittatas were a bit dry. I think I would add some more milk or yogurt to the batter next time.
