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.

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.

Delicious - just needs a nice sauce to accompany it. We made one from sour cream and had some salsa macha with it which really made it that much better.
0 HelpfulSo easy and tasty! Frittatas always stick to my pan so I line an 8x8 glass baking dish with parchment paper and dump it in. I usually have to bake for 25-30 min. Will definitely do this one repeatedly.
0 HelpfulGreat recipe. Easy to put together and this time it only stuck to part of my pan. The goat cheese really made the flavors pop. Definitely a keeper,
