BreakfastBrunch
Mediterranean

The Mediterranean frittata is a delightful dish that has its roots in the sunny regions of Southern Europe. This savory egg-based dish is packed with the flavors of the Mediterranean, including fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheeses. It's a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner. The addition of tzatziki sauce on the side adds a refreshing and tangy element to the frittata, elevating its flavors to new heights. In the coastal regions of Italy, Greece, and Spain, talented chefs have perfected the art of making frittatas. They use the finest local ingredients such as ripe tomatoes, fragrant basil, and creamy feta cheese to create a frittata that bursts with Mediterranean flavors. The key to a perfect frittata lies in the quality of the eggs and the freshness of the vegetables. For a truly authentic experience, head to the charming trattorias of Italy, where skilled nonnas lovingly prepare frittatas using age-old family recipes. In Greece, the tavernas overlooking the azure waters serve frittatas alongside dollops of homemade tzatziki, made with thick Greek yogurt, cucumbers, and garlic. When making a Mediterranean frittata at home, be sure to use the best quality eggs, and incorporate a variety of colorful vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, and onions. The addition of crumbled feta cheese and a sprinkle of fresh herbs like oregano or dill will transport your taste buds to the shores of the Mediterranean. Whether you're enjoying a leisurely brunch in a quaint European cafe or whipping up a frittata in your own kitchen, the Mediterranean frittata with a side of tzatziki sauce is a delightful way to savor the flavors of the Mediterranean.
