Vegan frittatas actually do exist! Instead of using eggs to make the batter, I use chickpea flour. This goes beautifully with the Swiss chard. Aside from making the batter, the method is almost identical to a regular frittata and is super quick. My vegan frittata with Swiss chard is a perfect mid-week meal if you're short on time during the week.
