PREP TIME:10minutes mins

COOK TIME:50minutes mins

TOTAL TIME:1hour hr

YIELD: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • ¾ cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano or Parmigiano Reggiano (plus more for serving)
  • 1 ¼ cups Stonyfield Organic Whole Milk Greek Yogurt (divided)
  • 2 tsp freshly ground black pepper (plus more for serving)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 small head cauliflower
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 cups baby arugula
  • 1 lemon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, cheese, ¾ cup yogurt, pepper, and salt until incorporated. Set aside.
  • Trim the cauliflower into florets; discard any tough parts of the stem. Chop the cauliflower into small pieces.
  • Set a large ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat.
  • Add the olive oil; once it starts to shimmer, add the cauliflower, stir to coat, and let cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it starts to brown.
  • Stir and cook for a few more minutes to increase the browning. Give the cauliflower one last stir and transfer the pan to the oven.
  • Roast until the it’s browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Transfer the skillet back to the stovetop (carefully; it will be hot!) and decrease the oven to 300F. This can be done ahead, or you can just pause and wait for the oven to cool down.
  • Set the skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Pour in the egg mixture and cook undisturbed for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the edges are just beginning to set.
  • Return to oven and bake the frittata until the top-center is just set, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While it bakes, zest half of the lemon and combine it with the remaining ½ cup yogurt.
  • Season frittata generously with black pepper.
  • Slice warm, directly from the skillet, or wait for the pan to cool down, set a large platter over the pan, and carefully invert it.
  • Just before serving, toss the arugula with a bit of lemon juice (2 teaspoons or so).
  • Serve slices of the frittata with about 1 generous tablespoon of lemony yogurt and top with the arugula salad; finish with black pepper and freshly grated Parmesan.
