A versatile, one-pan wonder that’s perfect for brunch, lunch, or a light dinner.

Ingredients (Serves 4–6):
-
8 large eggs
-
¼ cup whole milk or half & half
-
1 small zucchini, thinly sliced
-
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
-
½ red bell pepper, diced
-
¼ red onion, thinly sliced
-
½ cup crumbled goat cheese
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of Winter Savory
-
Finishing salt of choice from Saltery (see below!)
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of Winter Savory. Set aside.
-
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe 10-inch skillet (cast iron works great) over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften.
-
Add the zucchini and cook for another 2–3 minutes. Then toss in the cherry tomatoes and cook just until they begin to release their juices.
-
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet. Gently shake the pan to distribute everything evenly. Sprinkle goat cheese over the top.
-
Cook on the stovetop without stirring for 2–3 minutes, just until the edges begin to set.
-
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is puffed and golden.
-
Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Finish with your favorite Saltery salt for an extra layer of flavor.
Choose Your Finishing Salt:
Elevate your frittata with one of these Saltery finishing salts:
-
Duxbury Salt – Pure, unrefined, mineral-rich sea salt from Duxbury Bay. Clean and briny — perfect if you want the fresh vegetables and goat cheese to shine.
-
Winter Savory – A savory blend of sea salt and dried herbs. Use this in the egg mixture or sprinkle on top for a fragrant, earthy finish.
-
Black Garlic Salt – Adds a rich, umami twist with a touch of sweetness. Incredible with roasted veggies or if you’re adding mushrooms to your frittata.
-
Lemon Pepper Salt – Bright and zesty, this is amazing for spring or summer versions of the frittata with fresh herbs and greens.
-
Wild Truffle Salt – For a luxurious, earthy note. Just a pinch on top after baking takes it into brunch-at-a-bistro territory.
