Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups mixed vegetables e.g., bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheese e.g., cheddar, mozzarella
  • 1 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Optional: fresh herbs e.g., parsley, thyme

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Sauté vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, toss in the mixed vegetables and sauté until they are tender, about 5–7 minutes.
  • Whisk egg mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Add vegetables: Stir in the sautéed vegetables along with half of the shredded cheese into the egg mixture.
  • Transfer to a baking dish: Pour the entire mixture into a greased baking dish to ensure it doesn’t stick.
  • Top with cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top for an extra cheesy finish.
  • Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is golden brown.
  • Cool and serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
