Make
- Heat oven to 425F / 218C.
- Heat a 10.5” to 12” (26 cm to 30 cm) oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. (Note: skillet size is for 4 servings. If customizing, use a larger or smaller skillet, or you can transfer the cooked filling to a muffin tin and top it with the egg mixture before baking.) Add butter and then leeks with a pinch of salt. Saute until soft, ~5 minutes.
- Add tomatoes and corn and saute until most of the moisture from the tomatoes has cooked off, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add Italian seasoning and saute for 1 minute more.
- Pour eggs over vegetables and stir to combine ingredients. Crumble goat cheese over top of frittata.
- Bake frittata until set in the middle, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Toss lettuce, plums, and sunflower seeds with vinaigrette until dressed to your liking.
- Slice frittata. Serve with yogurt on top and salad on the side. Enjoy!

Really tasty and super easy and quick. I used my favorite fancy goat cheese with lavender and fennel and it made it taste very elegant :)

Made as a scramble to not turn on the oven. Flavors went really well together. Enjoyed the salad.
0 HelpfulMade it with Just eggs (vegan eggs) and no cheese. It was nice to make it ahead and let the flavors mingle overnight.
0 HelpfulAdded spinach from the home Garden instead of cherry tomatoes because of bf’s preferences.
0 HelpfulI also used 8 eggs, and it was great, definitely works with 4 people. I loved this recipe! I used peaches instead of plums. I used feta instead of goat cheese and it worked really well!
