Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 6 whole Cherry tomatoes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish with olive oil.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and dried Italian seasoning until well combined.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese and cooked spinach, ensuring the spinach is evenly distributed.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
If using cherry tomatoes, slice them in half and scatter them on top of the egg mixture for added color and flavor.
Bake the omelet in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden.
Allow the omelet to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges or squares.
Serve warm and enjoy your Italian Baked Spinach Omelet!
