Surprisingly hearty, with a fresh veggie flavor as big as its serving size, this cheesy frittata qualifies for a nice lunch option or late-night supper, too. —Michelle Sandoval, Escalon, California

I had never made a frittata before, so I was a bit unsure how this would turn out...this was amazing! My husband really enjoyed it and he is meat & potatoes kind of guy! I used 3 zucchini, omitted the mushrooms, and used a bit of extra cheese & bread crumbs. Really flavorful!

This was a great recipe - we gobbled it up! A few modifications based on what we had on hand: skipped the mushrooms, used 2% milk and 1 more egg since I had extra veggies in it, and used cheddar cheese. It was delicious and definitely a keeper.
