Ingredients:

• 3 eggs
  
• 1/4 cup milk
  
• 1 medium zucchini
  
• handful sun dried tomatoes
  
• 1/4 white/yellow onion
  
• 1 tsp garlic, minced
  
• parmesan cheese
  
• 2 tbsp butter
  
• addition butter for greasing pan

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop the zucchini, onion and sun-dried tomatoes into small chunks, as pictured. Add minced garlic to pan and saute for 30 seconds.**I spaced on taking pictures of me sauteing any veggies** Add onion & zucchini. Saute 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and saute for additional 2 minutes, until veggies start to soften. Remove from heat.


In a bowl, beat eggs and milk together. You could opt to do only egg whites, but since this recipe is full of healthy veggies, I kept the yolks for extra protein to keep me feeling full.


Grease a small casserole dish with butter and arrange sauteed veggies in a single layer. Pour in egg & milk mixture. Bake for 18 minutes. Grate a sprinkling of fresh parmesan cheese over the frittata. Return to the oven for an additional 4 minutes. Egg mixture should be completely set.


Give the frittata a couple minutes to cool before slicing and serving. Preheat leftovers in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 5-7 minutes.
