Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 3 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Crack the eggs into a large bowl, add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk everything together until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-proof, non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add them to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the skillet, cooking for another minute.
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet, ensuring the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the egg mixture.
Cook on the stovetop for about 5 minutes without stirring, allowing the edges to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and the center is set.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious spinach and cheese frittata!
