This Cauliflower & Parmesan Frittata is a fantastic way to sneak some extra veggies into your diet without sacrificing flavor. I developed this recipe after a friend complained about how boring her usual breakfast was. It's so versatile, and you'll find yourself making it again and again. It’s seriously that good! The creamy Parmesan combined with the subtly sweet cauliflower is just heavenly; my tastebuds are doing the happy dance!

I'm a total sucker for cheesy dishes, and this one delivers in spades! It’s also unbelievably easy to make. Perfect for a weeknight dinner, a satisfying brunch, or even a light lunch. Plus, you can totally customize it! Add some herbs, spinach, or even leftover roasted vegetables to make it your own. What a great way to use up leftovers, right?

🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This is crucial for a perfectly cooked frittata.
  2. If using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they are finely chopped, resembling rice. Alternatively, you can finely grate it using a box grater or vegetable peeler. Don't worry about making it absolutely perfect; some slight variations in size are fine!
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or cream), salt, and pepper. Make sure to do a good job whisking here, so the eggs are evenly distributed. This helps create a more consistent texture.
  4. Gently stir in the chopped cauliflower, grated Parmesan cheese, and any other mix-ins like herbs or veggies you want to add. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
  5. Spray your 9-inch oven-safe skillet or baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. This prevents sticking, a real lifesaver if you’re prone to kitchen mishaps like me!
  6. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared skillet. Make sure it's evenly distributed.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the frittata is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly. Again, a toothpick test is your friend here. Every oven is a little different, so keep an eye on it!
  8. Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This prevents it from falling apart while slicing. Trust me on this one; it makes a big difference!
  9. Enjoy your delicious and healthy Cauliflower & Parmesan Frittata! It's amazing hot or at room temperature. Mmm, tasty!

📝 Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables, herbs, or spices to customize the frittata.
  • Don't overmix the egg mixture, as this can make the frittata tough.
  • If using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until it resembles rice. Avoid over-processing it into a mush!
