Zucchini is available all year round but it’s peak time is summer so you can make this zucchini frittata any time of the year. I’m not big on dieting but I love eating healthy and one of my favorite vegetables is zucchini. So, I decided to make some frittata out of it.
This zucchini is very easy and you can add varieties of things or ingredients to it. You could add cheese, paprika instead of red pepper flakes. Add herbs if you desire. If you need something simple, inexpensive, and easy to make this zucchini frittata is for you.
When you’re selecting your zucchini, make sure you choose firm zucchinis and no blemish over it. I have other vegetables recipes, casserole on the blog that you might want to check out.
