Storage and Reheating Tips
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm individual slices in the microwave for 30-60 seconds, or heat in a skillet over low heat until warmed through.
Tips for the Best Stovetop Frittata
- Use low heat: Cooking the frittata over low heat ensures the eggs cook evenly and don’t dry out.
- Don’t rush it: Be patient as the eggs set. Covering the skillet helps trap steam and cook the frittata through without flipping.
- Cheese variety: While Cheddar and Swiss work well, you can experiment with other cheeses like Gruyère, mozzarella, or feta for different flavors.
Variations and Add-Ons
- Vegetable frittata: Add vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini. Cook them with the onions before adding the ham and eggs.
- Meatless option: Skip the ham for a vegetarian version, and consider adding extra veggies or a meat substitute like plant-based sausage.
- Spicy twist: Add chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the eggs for a spicy frittata.
