How to Make Garlic Scape Frittata

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Chop 1 cup of garlic scapes and 1 cup of chard into 2-inch pieces.
  3. Chop 1/2 medium yellow onion and 1 cup of diced summer squash.
  4. Spray a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with cooking oil and place over medium-high heat.
  5. Add the chopped garlic scapes and chard to the skillet. Cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted but still slightly tender. Add more cooking spray as needed to prevent sticking.
  6. Add the onion and squash and cook for another 5 minutes, until softened.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs and 1/4 cup of milk or cream.
  8. Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Add 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) to the egg mixture.
  10. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.
  11. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of cheese over the top.
  12. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  13. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
