Ingredients

• 8 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 yellow onion
• 2 cups spinach
• 1 cup button mushrooms
• 1 cup cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cup parsley
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 3

In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until smooth and fully blended.

Step 4

Add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper into the whisked eggs and mix until well combined. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dice the red bell pepper and yellow onion, slice the mushrooms, and add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 6

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat.

Step 7

Halve the cherry tomatoes and chop the parsley.

Step 8

Spread the sautéed vegetable mixture evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.

Step 9

Sprinkle half of the cheddar cheese over the vegetables, then pour the egg mixture evenly on top.

Step 10

Evenly distribute the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the egg mixture, then sprinkle the remaining cheese and chopped parsley.

Step 11

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and the top is golden brown.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
