This is different but worth trying! The key to making this dish is to have all the ingredients prepared before you begin sautéing the onions.

8 large eggs is a lot, maybe 4 would give the same result. I make frittatas regularly.

Adjustable I just put what it said, I would use less too, especially with the price of eggs these days. Also there is an egg substitute o use that too plus 1 or 2 eggs.

I don’t eat onions they make me vomit

Whenever I do anything like, I tend to separate whites and yolks then whisk the crap out of the whites then folding in beaten yolks. I then fold the other cooked ingredients plus grated cheese then allow it to partially set before finishing under the griller, you'll find you don't need all that many eggs.
