Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis, grated

4 large eggs

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup milk

1 clove garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 slices of whole-grain bread

Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures it's ready for the frittata as soon as you're finished preparing the mixture.

    Prepare the Zucchini: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchinis with a pinch of salt. Allow them to sit for about 10 minutes; this process helps to extract excess moisture. After 10 minutes, take a clean kitchen towel and squeeze the zucchini to remove any additional liquid.

      Make the Egg Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until well beaten. Then, add the grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella, milk, minced garlic, onion powder, and season generously with salt and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are fully combined.

        Combine Ingredients: Fold the well-drained zucchini into the egg mixture gently. This will ensure the zucchini is evenly distributed throughout the egg batter.

          Prepare the Toasts: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the slices of whole-grain bread, toasting each side for about 1-2 minutes or until they are golden brown. Alternatively, for a quicker option, you can use a toaster to achieve the same result.

            Cook the Frittata Mixture: Pour the combined zucchini and egg mixture into a greased muffin tin (for mini frittatas) or a 9x9-inch baking dish. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is firm and lightly golden on top.

              Assemble the Toasts: Once the frittata is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Carefully cut the frittata into small squares or circles that will fit neatly on top of the toasted bread slices.

                Serve: Place the mini frittata pieces atop the toasted bread. Garnish each toast with fresh basil or parsley for an aromatic touch. Serve warm for a delightful appetizer or snack.
