Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cup skim milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup feta cheese
- 2 green onions
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Grease a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Dice the red bell pepper and slice the green onions. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the red bell pepper for about 3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the spinach to the skillet and continue to cook until it wilts, about 2 more minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and skim milk until well combined. Add the sautéed vegetables, cherry tomatoes, green onions, feta cheese, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Garnish with additional chopped green onions or fresh herbs, if desired, and enjoy!
