Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350F
Make the veggie filling: Cut the broccoli into small florets and steam until just tender, let cool. At the same time, sauté the onion or leek in olive oil, 3-4 minutes, over medium heat. Add the peppers and mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Keep sautéing until tender.
Make the custard: While the veggies are cooking whisk (or blend in a blender) the eggs with the ricotta, cream, salt and pepper. ( Most any combo of ricotta, sour cream and cream will work here- 2 cups total.)
Assemble the frittata: Grease a deep 9 x 13-inch baking dish or 12-inch skillet. Pour 1/2 of the egg mixture in the bottom. Add the cooked veggies (you should have roughly 6 cups). Add the basil, spinach and cheese and pour in the remaining egg mixture. Give the veggies and little swirl so egg mixture is incorporated.
Bake: in the middle of the oven until the center is puffed and the frittata is nice and golden about 1 hour. Check at 30-40 minutes and tent with foil if getting too dark. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
