Ingredients

6 large eggs

1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk)

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1 small onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Sauté the Vegetables: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they become translucent and fragrant.

      Cook the Kale: Add the chopped kale to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika, stirring to combine.

        Mix the Pumpkin and Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, and milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.

          Combine Ingredients: Pour the pumpkin and egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Gently stir to evenly distribute the ingredients. Crumble feta cheese over the top.

            Cook on Stovetop: Cook on the stovetop for about 3-4 minutes, allowing the edges to set slightly.

              Bake the Frittata: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden on top.

                Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
