Frittatas are versatile. They are delicious served for any meal of the day, but are easy enough to become a regular part of your weeknight dinner rotation. This one-skillet dish gets some heft from white beans that are stirred into the egg mixture. Use cannellini (also known as white kidney beans), Great Northern beans, or navy beans. You can also use black beans, a favorite in Mexican cuisine. Amp up the Mexican flavors a bit more by stirring garlic powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper into the egg mixture. Frittatas start on the stovetop but finish in the oven, so be sure to use an ovenproof or cast-iron skillet when making them.
