Why Make This Recipe

Spinach and egg frittata is a fantastic choice for any meal of the day. This dish is packed with nutrients and offers a good source of protein and vitamins, making it a healthy option. It is easy to prepare and requires minimal ingredients, which means you can whip it up without much fuss. Plus, it’s a great way to use up leftover vegetables and can be customized to your taste.

How to Make Spinach and Egg Frittata

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup cheese (e.g., feta or mozzarella), crumbled or shredded
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or butter for cooking

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft.
  4. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and onion, and sprinkle the cheese on top.
  6. Cook on the stovetop for about 3 minutes until the edges start to set.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes until the frittata is puffed and fully set.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

How to Serve Spinach and Egg Frittata

You can serve the frittata warm or at room temperature. It pairs well with a simple side salad for lunch or dinner. You can also enjoy it on its own for breakfast. A dollop of yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh herbs can add extra flavor.

How to Store Spinach and Egg Frittata

If you have leftovers or want to prepare the frittata ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last for 3-4 days. When you’re ready to eat, simply reheat it in the oven or microwave until warmed through.

Tips to Make Spinach and Egg Frittata

  • For added flavor, consider sautéing other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms along with the onion.
  • Use a mix of cheeses for a richer taste; cheddar and goat cheese work well.
  • Make sure to not overcook the frittata in the oven. It should be just set in the center.
  • You can add herbs like basil or parsley to enhance the flavor.

Variation

Feel free to add cooked meats like ham or bacon for a heartier meal. You can also switch the spinach for other greens like kale or Swiss chard, depending on your preference.
