If youre going to make a frittata, you better make it a sun-dried tomato frittata. I mean, thats what I always say anyway.

With the holidays quickly approaching, I dont think its the worst idea to start thinking about meals that you can make ahead of time and/or meals that feel a lot of people. Lucky for you, this frittata is both of those things! You can easy make it the day before if you need tothough the whole recipe comes together in just 30 minutesand it serves up to 8 people. Not bad, if you ask me.

WHY THIS SUN-DRIED TOMATO FRITTATA IS SO GOOD

  • Its not only filled with sun-dried tomatoes, but with onion, garlic and feta cheese for tons of flavor
  • The eggs are combined with heavy cream to make this SUPER creamy
  • Its ready in under 30 minutes!

HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT FRITTATA

Whisk the eggs together, then add the cream. If youre a regular Almond Eater reader, you know that I try to opt for dairy free options when possible. I made this frittata twicethe first time with almond milk and then the second time with heavy creamand the heavy cream version was SO much better. So, for this recipe, Im recommending that you use heavy cream.

Once those are mixed, stir in the onion, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and arugula, then pour everything into an oven-safe skillet and sprinkle the cheese on top.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING QUALITY SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

There are a few things to take into consideration when choosing sun-dried tomatoes, but an obvious one is the color! California Sun Dry sun dried tomatoes are a bright red color and overall very vibrant looking, whereas other brands are darker and kind of dull looking. Its also important to note that theyre tomatoes actually dry out in the sun for 7 to 10 days, which enhances their flavor.

CAN I USE DAIRY FREE MILK INSTEAD OF CREAM?

Yes, absolutely! Though I preferred the heavy cream version, you can use any sort of dairy free milk in this recipe.
