    It turned out too soggy for me. I might try cooking it longer next time.

    Frittata supposed to be fliped, right? Mine just sat there like a pancake.

    Absolutely delicious! The ricotta makes it so creamy. Will definitely make again!

    I didn’t have fresh herbs, so I used dried ones. It was ok, but not as good as I expected. Maybe fresh is key?

      Fresh herbs? Sounds fancy but I’ve never liked ricotta. Might leave that out. Hope it still works.

    Aight, but why no onions? I added ’em last minute. It was ok.

    Herbs are overrated in eggs. Just scramble them. Why bother?

    I wasn’t sure about ricotta in a frittata, but it actually worked! More fluffiness!

      Really? I thought it would be kinda weird. Guess I gotta give it a try then.

      I totally get you! Ricotta does make it super fluffy. It was a game changer for me too. 😊

    I used spinach instead of chives and it was still great! Very adaptable.

      Spinach instead of chives? I don’t know about that. Chives give it a unique taste. But whatever works for ya, I guess.

    2. 5 stars
      I love that you used spinach! It must have added a nice flavor. I’ll definitely try it that way!

      Looks easy, but my frittatas never turn out right. Do the eggs really need that much ricotta? Sounds weird.

    Can I use cottage cheese instead of ricotta? What do y’all think?

    Easy to make, but I didn’t have all the herbs so I used spinach. Still good!

    Frittata? Sounds like a fancy word for scrambled eggs! LOL

  16. User avatar emory.greenholt78 says:

    I dunno, frittatas always seem a bit fancy for everyday. Just eggs, man.

    1. User avatar Falmer Nightprowler says:

      Seems fancy, yeah, but it’s basically just scrambled eggs baked in a pan. Why not? I like making it when I have leftover veggies.

    2. User avatar dewey.lowe40 says:

      I get what you’re saying, but frittatas are super easy to make once you try! It’s just a bunch of eggs with stuff you probably got in your fridge. Give it a shot!

      Looks good, but isn’t frittata supposed to have potatoes? I dunno, might try it but with spuds.

    I tried this but it was a little bland. More seasoning maybe?

    1. User avatar domingo.schowalter1988 says:

      I totally agree! A bit more salt and pepper can really bring the flavors out. Maybe some garlic powder too?

      I thought it was pretty good! Not everything has to be super flavorful, though. But you do you!
