Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces sausage (ground or links, casings removed)
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet (such as cast iron) over medium heat.
Add the sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it into small pieces, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and mix with the vegetables until evenly distributed.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables, tilting the skillet slightly to ensure the egg is evenly spread across the pan.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is light golden brown.
Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the frittata to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
