Ingredients

• 8 pieces eggs
• 0.25 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 large bell pepper
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 2 cloves garlic
• 0.5 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 0.25 cups parmesan cheese (grated)
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk them together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

Prepare the vegetables. Slice the zucchini into thin rounds, dice the bell pepper, finely chop the red onion, mince the garlic, and set aside the baby spinach.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and red onion, cooking for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 5

Add the bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 6

Add the baby spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted, stirring frequently.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and evenly distribute the vegetables in the skillet.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, tilting the skillet to ensure the eggs settle evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.

Step 10

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges and serving.
