This frittata cooks up quickly and makes for an easy weeknight supper or…would be perfect for a brunch...Mother's Day perhaps (hint, hint, wink, wink to my family!) I love to serve the frittata with a simple arugula salad. The peppery, bitterness of the arugula pairs really well with the rich taste of the frittata and the sweetness from the onions and fennel. YUM!

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Heat a 10-inch cast iron (or oven safe) skillet over medium heat.
Add oil, onion and fennel bulb, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt, cook, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes or until softened and beginning to caramelize.
Whisk together eggs, milk, 1/3 cup of the Parmesan cheese, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt. Stir in parsley, olives and feta.
If skillet tends to stick, lightly spray edges of skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour egg mixture over the onions and fennel in hot skillet.
Cook stirring slowly for about 1 minute or until the eggs begin to set around the edge of the skillet.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the egg mixture and transfer skillet to preheated oven.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the center is just set.
While frittata is cooking make dressing: shake in a small jar or whisk together vinegar, salt, pepper, fennel fronds and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Set aside.
When frittata is done, remove from oven and allow to rest for about 5 minutes.
In large bowl, dress the arugula with the dressing.
Cut frittata into 6 or 8 wedges and serve topped with arugula salad.
