Directions

In a medium bowl combine eggs and basil; set aside.

Heat oil in a large broilerproof skillet; add corn, zucchini, and green onions.

Cook and stir for 3 minutes; add tomatoes, salt and pepper to taste.

Cook, uncovered, over medium heat about 5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.

Pour egg mixture over vegetables in skillet.

Cook over medium heat.

As mixture sets, run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion flows underneath.

Continue cooking and lifting edges until egg mixture is almost set (surface will be moist), about 6 to 8 minutes.

Sprinkle with cheese.

Place the skillet under broiler 4 to 5 inches from heat.

Broil 1 to 2 minutes or until top is just set and cheese is melted.

Cool slightly and serve warm.
