Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a medium-sized, oven-safe non-stick skillet with olive oil spray and heat over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, whole eggs, and skim milk until well combined. Stir in the salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Fold the wilted spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and halved cherry tomatoes into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture into the skillet and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for 5-6 minutes until the edges start to set, but the center is still slightly runny.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed up and fully cooked in the center. A toothpick inserted in the middle should come out clean.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and enjoy!
