The word frittata comes from an Italian word that means “fried” and describes Italy’s take on an open-faced omelet. Just as in an omelet, a variety of ingredients are added, but this step occurs before baking, rather than during the omelet’s frying. Our version focuses on the frittata’s Italian inspiration by using the classic goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. You’ll be dreaming of the sun-drenched Italian countryside with the first bite.
