Potato and Vegetable Frittata

Preparation Time: 30 minutes or less       Cooking Time: 30 minutes or less        Serves: 4

 Ingredients:

* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/2 cup chopped onion
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
* 1 zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut in 1/4 inch slices
* 2 cups cooked and diced potatoes
* 1 cup chopped fresh tomato
* 2 tablespoons black olives
* 5 eggs
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
* 1/2 small tomato, sliced
* 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
* 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

This is for 4 "normal" servings or three big ones. It takes about 30-40 minutes total to make. By default this is vegetarian, but feel free to add sausage or something like that, or replace vegetables you don't like with vegetables you do. And you can change the amounts of each vegetable to whatever you want - this isn't a very strict recipe except that you want to make sure you have enough eggs to cover the pan.

It is similar to a quiche, but there isn't any crust on the edges, so it's almost more like a omelette. 
  
 
 Step 1:

Peel and chop the potatoes. Put them in boiling water and set a timer for about 5 minutes to check on them. Once they are done you'll want to set them aside, but continue on to the next steps for now.

Heat up the oil in a broiler-safe skillet/pan on medium. I had to use my 12" cast iron pan because it's the only oven safe one I have. It works fine except it's not non-stick so it's kind of a pain to clean up after.

Cut up your onion, garlic, and pepper:
