Ingredients
Scale
6 large eggs
1/2 cup milk (or a plant-based alternative)
1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), diced
1 medium onion, diced
1 cup mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (such as basil or parsley) for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until they are translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the bell peppers and mushrooms, cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes until tender. Finally, add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Stir gently to distribute the veggies evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the middle and lightly golden on top. Use a toothpick to check for doneness; it should come out clean.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with fresh herbs for a pop of freshness.
Notes
This frittata can be customized with your favorite vegetables.
For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based milk and omit the cheese or substitute with a dairy-free option.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
