Mix up your morning routine with a delicious frittata; eggs boost protein and veggies become tender and delicious. Get creative with your frittata combos – try spicy jalapenos and cheddar or ham and Swiss. This frittata easily feeds a family of four.

  • 4 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 8 large eggs, lightly beaten

How to Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°.

Step 2

Heat a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add oil; swirl to coat. Add onion; sauté 10 minutes or until tender. Add spinach; cook 2 minutes, stirring just until spinach wilts.

Step 3

Combine eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture over vegetables in pan; cook until edges begin to set, about 2 minutes. Gently lift edge of egg mixture, tilting pan to allow uncooked egg mixture to come in contact with pan. Cook 2 minutes or until egg mixture is almost set. Sprinkle with cheese.

Step 4

Bake at 400° for 8 minutes or until center is set. Transfer frittata to a serving platter immediately; cut into 6 wedges.

Saw this recipe last night and I just had to make it this morning before leaving for work. It does not take long at all to make, and you can add just about whatever you like. I cooked nitrate-free bacon to a crisp and cumbled it in, and added paprika and a dash of cayenne. Took a piece to work for breakfast and put the rest of the slices in the freezer. Everyone at work wanted the recipe! A friend said she'll try it with cooked chicken breast and mushrooms. My co-workers call me "chef"! It's absolutely yummy!
