Notes
- Don't over beat the eggs - this can cause the frittata to become dense when baked.
- Leftover pasta - this vegetable frittata is a delicious recipe for leftover cooked pasta, just sub in 2 cups of your favourite cooked pasta instead of the macaroni.
- Allow to cool before cutting into slices - leave the frittata to cool for at least 10 minutes once you take it out of the oven to allow it to firm up and make it easier to cut into neat slices.
- Serving ideas - this pasta and vegetable frittata tastes delicious on its own, or serve with a roast pumpkin salad, crispy potato wedges or with some soft and fluffy bread rolls.
- Storage - store the pasta frittata in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Freezer - freeze the slice for up to 2 months.
