Notes
- Frittata will keep for 3-4 days in an airtight container in the fridge so feel free to make a big batch for meal prep.
- You can change your oven setting to broil for the last 2-3 minutes of baking for the frittata to be nicely golden brown on top.
- Feel free to substitute pumpkin with sweet potato and spinach with any of your favorite leafy greens eg. kale instead.
- For dairy-free, substitute milk with unflavored almond/ soy/ oat milk and cheese with dairy-free cheese.
