My Baked Vegetable Frittata is one of those kind of dishes that can be served for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Great served alone or with some breakfast (veggie) sausage, or a nice salad. It’s totally up to you. 🙂
I’ve used some of my favorite veggies for this, but feel free to use whatever veggies that you enjoy or whatever may be in season. Typically about 3 cups of veggies work well with this. I find that it’s best to sauté the veggies prior to cooking the frittata in the oven. I’ve also added in a little veggie sausage into my frittata in the past, so if you’re into that, it works very well with this frittata.
Feel free to omit the dried herbs and toss in a small handful of fresh herbs if you have them. As for the cheese, I find that cheddar, colby, and Monterey jack pair well with this frittata, but again feel free to use what you like.
As for the baking dish, I recommend using a 9 x 9 or 2.5 to 3-quart baking dish or a 9 to 10 inch deep (around 2 – 2.25 inches) pie dish. But I also enjoy using my Staub Oval Cast Iron 12.5 inch baking dish. It’s truly one of my favorites to bake in. Whether you’re roasting some vegetables to baking a pasta dish, it’s truly wonderful. Staub builds on their tradition of their enameled cast iron cookware. The black matte enamel inside and cooking surface creates an advantage for better browning, braising, and roasting. It’s also safe for use on all types of heat sources, including gas, electric, and induction, and oven safe up to 500F. It’s chip resistant, requires not seasoning and is dishwasher safe!
Now for the Frittata!

Get the Recipe: Baked Vegetable Frittata
Ingredients
- a good drizzle vegetable or olive oil or cooking spray
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup mushrooms, thinly sliced
- ½ medium red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 9 large eggs
- ¼ cup half and half, whole milk is fine as well
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, or a small handful of fresh herbs roughly chopped
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheese, cheddar, colby, or monterey jack
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
Equipment
- 1 9 x 9 or 2.5 to 3-quart baking dish or a 9 to 10 inch deep (around 2 - 2.25 inches) pie dish
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium skillet, over medium-low heat, drizzle a little vegetable or olive oil. Add in the broccoli, mushrooms, and red bell peppers and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes or so or until the broccoli is bright green and the mushrooms look slightly golden.
- In a medium bowl, crack and add in the eggs, half and half milk, dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Whisk that all together. Add ½ cup of cheese into bowl as well and fold that in along with the scallions.
- Lightly spray or oil your 9 to 10 inch deep pie dish and set it to the side.
- Transfer your veggies into your dish. Now pour your egg mixture into your baking dish as well and sprinkle the rest of your cheese on top. Transfer the baking dish into oven on the center rack. Bake until the eggs have cooked and set and they are no longer jiggly throughout, about 25 to 35 minutes (depending on what you're baking your frittata in). Your frittata will rise and then fall slightly when you take it out of the oven. Once done, allow to cool slightly, and then slice and serve.
This is a super delicious recipe. Full of flavors and very easy to make. You should try it. It’s great for a Sunday Brunch with the family. Thank you Michelle❣️
Hi Tere!! Just want to thank you again. Truly happy that you enjoyed it!! Hugs! 🙂
Another veggie laden winning recipe. Made this for dinner along with a side of roasted sweet potatoes and carrots. Served the frittata topped with fresh avocado, green salsa and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt.
Hi Danita!
Oh that sounds awesome!! Thanks so much for giving the recipe a try!! 🙂
my eggs have a fishy smell when baked that make them a little unenjoyable to eat. I’ve read that this is due to omega 3 levels. what eggs do you think are best to use for baked egg dishes? Thanks!
Hi Shawn. Not sure if it’s true or not, but here’s what I read. “Eggs smell fishy due to nutrigenetics (a combination of nutrition and genetics). The most common nutritional cause of fishy eggs is too much canola meal, while brown-shelled egg-laying hens are genetically more likely to lay fishy-smelling eggs if fed elevated levels of canola meal”. Hope this helps.
Made this for my Significant Other and myself which required cutting recipe by 1/3. Delicious and due to my carnivorous Midwest upbringing, added some cubed cooked ham. Great Sunday rotation brunch thing.
Thanks
Wonderful!! So happy that you both enjoyed it!! Thanks for giving it a try!
Please start a cooking channel on YouTube. Everything you make is beautiful.
Aww…thank you Tiffany! I appreciate you!
Another great recipe!
Thanks so much Jessica!! 🙂
Could I make this ahead? Looks delicious 😋
Hi Anthony and thank you! Sure…making the night before would be fine. I would just recommend letting the sautéed vegetable mixture cool completely prior to pouring the egg mixture over and then seal and cover tightly.
New Christmas morning classic! Enjoyed by all and festive looking red and green veggies. So easy – prepped the night before to just pop in the oven Christmas morning. Thanks again Michelle for another wonderful recipe!
Hi Jen! Oh wonderful!!! So happy to hear that and glad you all enjoyed it!!
Hello. (Not sure if you’ll see this in 2024!) As for the baking dish… a tin pie dish? (I only have a glass one… is that ok?) Also… 9-10 inch circumference, I presume… but, as far as “deep”… how deep is “deep”? Thank you.
Hi Kim! Yes!! Seeing it. 🙂 And sure a glass one will work fine. As far as depth. I’d say around 2 – 2.25 inches in depth.
Made the Summer “No Recipe” Summer Delight last night and just made this for breakfast.
We our HUGE fans of your recipes.
Thank you for sharing!
Hi Sharon! Oh wonderful! So happy that you enjoyed both of them! Thank you soooo much!! 🙂
