Instructions

Make the egg mixture

Cook the vegetables

  1. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

Assemble and bake

  1. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet.
  2. Sprinkle the feta over the top.
  3. Cook on the stovetop 2 to 3 minutes, until the edges begin to set.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake 12 to 15 minutes, until the center is just set.
  5. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Make the side salad

  1. Combine the greens, tomatoes, and cucumber in a bowl.

  3. Toss the salad lightly and season with pepper, and salt if needed.

Notes

  • Keep the feta moderate to manage sodium.
  • Use minimal added salt and rely on herbs and lemon for brightness.
  • For added fiber, serve with a small portion of whole grain toast or farro.
