  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them lightly until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Stir in the cottage cheese and season with salt and black pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until they are slightly softened and fragrant.
  3. Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture over the vegetables in the pan. Use a spatula to ensure the mixture is evenly spread. Allow the frittata to cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
  4. Transfer the frying pan to the preheated grill. Grill the frittata for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the centre is set.
  5. Remove the frittata from the grill and let it cool for a minute or two. Slide it onto a plate or cutting board, and slice into wedges to serve.
