Frittatas are a delightful canvas for creating nutritious masterpieces, and this savory stovetop frittata is no exception.

The Nutrient-Packed Ingredients

Before we dive into the cooking process, let's explore the incredible health benefits of the star ingredients in our Arugula, Portobello, and Feta Frittata.

🥚 Eggs: Our foundation, rich in protein and essential vitamins, including B12 and choline, supporting brain health and energy levels. Plus, eggs help keep you feeling full, reducing the temptation for unhealthy snacking. 🧠

🍄 Portobello Mushrooms: These fungi are nutrient powerhouses. They provide a savory, meaty flavor without the meat. Loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, Portobellos support immunity and may even boost your mood. 🍄

🌿 Arugula: A leafy green superstar! Arugula is a fantastic source of vitamins A and K, which promote healthy skin and bone strength. Its peppery flavor adds a unique twist to your meal while delivering a potent dose of antioxidants. 🌿

🍅 Cherry Tomatoes: Bursting with the antioxidant lycopene, these little red jewels help protect your cells from damage and may lower your risk of chronic diseases. Plus, they add a pop of color and sweetness to the frittata. 🍅

🧀 Feta Cheese: Creamy and tangy, Feta provides calcium for strong bones and probiotics for gut health. It's a flavorful way to incorporate dairy into your diet. 🧀

Now, let's bring these nutritional powerhouses together into a delectable masterpiece.

Cooking Up Good Health

Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 20-25 minutes Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 6 whole eggs 🥚
  • ¼ c. half & half 🥛
  • 3 T. water 💧
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 🧂
  • 1 T. extra virgin olive oil 🫒
  • 6 baby Portobellos, washed, gills removed, stems chopped, and caps cut into thin slices 🍄
  • 2 handfuls arugula, washed and dried 🌿
  • 6 cherry tomatoes, washed and cut in half 🍅
  • 2 oz. Feta cheese, cut into equal-size chunks 🧀

Directions:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, half & half, water, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper until blended. Set aside.
  • Add olive oil to a 10” non-stick skillet and heat over medium heat. Add Portobello mushroom slices and chopped stems and cook approximately 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the mushrooms are browned, remove 3 uniformly sized mushroom slices from the pan and set aside.

  • Add arugula to pan and stir constantly until wilted, approximately 1-2 minutes.

  • With a spoon, spread ingredients into a uniform layer across the bottom of the pan, ensuring an even distribution of mushrooms and arugula throughout. Pour egg mixture on top and let cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the egg begins to set on the bottom.

  • Reduce heat to just above the “low” setting and cover. Cook 8-9 minutes, then remove the cover and arrange the 3 Portobello strips, cherry tomato halves, and Feta chunks in a decorative pattern, if desired. If not, simply scatter those ingredients across the top of the frittata before covering again.

  • Cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the egg is cooked through and the Feta has just begun to melt. Remove from heat and carefully transfer to a serving platter and cut into wedges.

  • Serve warm or enjoy at room temperature.
