Zucchini Feta Frittata

I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, but I don't have any heavy, oven-safe pans. You know, the ones that are perfect for making a frittata. The ones that the Food Network tells you to use. Well, since I don't have those pans, I've created my own little, stove-top version. And you know what? It was awesome. Who says you can't have the good stuff with the easy stuff! All you have to do is cook it in a small pan over low heat and you're eggs will be set in about 15 to 20 minutes. Not that much longer than if you were to use an oven to finish the cooking.

In this frittata, I used a yellow pepper as the main pepper in mine, but added a tiny bit of red pepper for color. (I love all peppers and use them whenever I can!) Since frittatas are an empty canvas though, you can replace any of the vegetables or cheese with your favorites. You may have to adjust the cooking time a bit depending on the ingredients you use, but the technique will stay the same.
