Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

2 cups finely shredded cabbage (green, purple, or a mix)
4 large eggs
1/4 cup milk or cream
1/2 cup shredded cheese (Cheddar, Gruyère, or mozzarella)
1 small onion, finely chopped (optional)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or dill), optional

Optional toppings: Sriracha, avocado slices, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Step 1: Prepare the Pan

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
If using onion, sauté for 1–2 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 2: Cook the Cabbage

Add the shredded cabbage and minced garlic to the skillet.
Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until slightly wilted but still vibrant.
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Tip: Cabbage cooks quickly, and keeping a little crunch adds texture to your frittata squares.

Step 3: Mix the Eggs

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk or cream until smooth.
Stir in shredded cheese and optional herbs.

Step 4: Combine and Cook

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cabbage in the skillet.
Reduce heat to medium and cook without stirring for 4–5 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is slightly firm but still soft.
Cover the skillet with a lid to help the top cook through.

Pro Tip: For an extra golden top, place the skillet under a broiler for 1–2 minutes after cooking.

Step 5: Slice and Serve

Let the frittata cool for 1–2 minutes.
Cut into squares or wedges and serve hot.
Garnish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a sprinkle of extra cheese.

Serving Suggestion: Enjoy with a fresh green salad, avocado, or your favorite dipping sauce for a quick and complete meal.

Don’t overcook: Eggs should be set but not rubbery; they continue cooking slightly after removal from heat.
Even cooking: Use a non-stick skillet and medium heat to avoid burning the bottom.
Extra flavor: Add cooked bacon, ham, or sautéed mushrooms for a heartier dish.
Make it crispy: Finish under a broiler for 1–2 minutes to get a slightly golden, crispy top.
