Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk together with the heavy cream until fully combined.
Season the egg mixture with salt and black pepper.
Dice the red bell pepper, slice the zucchini thinly, halve the cherry tomatoes, and chop the onion.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sautΓ© until it becomes translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add the diced red bell pepper and sliced zucchini to the skillet, and cook for 4-5 minutes or until softened.
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and fresh spinach, and cook until the spinach has wilted.
Evenly distribute the cooked vegetables across the skillet and pour the egg mixture over the top.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the egg mixture.
Move the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the frittata is set and golden brown.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool slightly before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
