Ingredients

• 8 large eggs
• 1.5 cups (shredded) smoked cheese (e.g., smoked gouda or cheddar)
• 0.25 cups milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small (finely chopped) yellow onion
• 1 medium (diced) bell pepper
• 2 cups (loosely packed) baby spinach
• 2 cloves (minced) garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet (10-12 inches) over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, until wilted. Distribute the vegetables evenly in the skillet.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables, tilting the skillet slightly to ensure the eggs spread evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded smoked cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.

Step 9

Cook on the stovetop over low heat for 2-3 minutes, allowing the edges to set slightly.

Step 10

Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and the center is set.

Step 11

Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
