Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Whisk eggs, milk, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl.
- Heat olive oil in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add fennel and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and garlic; cook, stirring often, until zucchini softens, 5 to 7 minutes. Add 1/2 of the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Mix in remaining spinach, red peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes; cook for 2 to 3 more minutes.
- Spread veggies into an even layer in the skillet. Pour egg mixture over top, then gently shake the pan a few times to help eggs settle to the bottom. Remove from the heat and sprinkle goat cheese over top.
- Place skillet in the preheated oven and bake until eggs are set, about 25 minutes. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:
- In a large non-stick skillet heat 2 teaspoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté zucchini until it begins to brown. Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until just wilted. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Remove skillet from heat and cool vegetables slightly.
- Preheat oven to 225°F. Grease a large baking sheet.
- In a large bowl beat eggs lightly and stir in vegetables, tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste. In a 9-inch heavy omelet pan heat 1 teaspoon oil over moderately low heat until hot but not smoking and add 1 cup egg mixture, tilting pan to distribute evenly. Cook egg mixture until set underneath but still slightly wet in center, 3 to 4 minutes. Slide frittata halfway out of pan onto prepared baking sheet and fold second half over to make a half circle. (Eggs will continue to cook from residual heat.) Keep frittata warm in oven. Make 3 more frittata with remaining oil and egg mixture in same manner. Keep frittata warm, covered with foil, up to 1 hour.
- Cut each frittata into 8 wedges.
Tips:
- Use a good quality non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the frittata from sticking and will make it easier to flip.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too many ingredients to the skillet, the frittata will be too thick and will not cook evenly.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat: This will help prevent the frittata from burning.
- Flip the frittata halfway through cooking: This will help ensure that the frittata is cooked evenly.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before serving: This will help the frittata hold its shape.
