Zucchini Frittata

Spray or wipe an oven safe pan with a VERY thin coat of olive oil. Set burner to medium heat. Add zucchini and onion to skillet; cook, stirring often, for 1 minute. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender, but not mush…3 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, mint, basil, 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder and a grinding of pepper; increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring, until the moisture has evaporated, 30 to 60 seconds.
