Instructions

  1. Preheat oven
    Set oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the vegetables

    • Stir in fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of black pepper.
  4. Combine and add cheese
    • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the radicchio, tomatoes, and walnuts in the skillet.
    • Sprinkle Gorgonzola crumbles over the top.
  5. Bake the frittata
    • Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 16–18 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden.
  6. Finish and serve
    • Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
    • Garnish with extra thyme sprigs.
    • Serve warm or at room temperature.

✨ Serving tip: Pair this frittata with a simple arugula salad dressed in lemon and olive oil, and a slice of crusty bread for a complete Italian-style meal.
