Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• 0.25 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup ricotta cheese
• 4 cups fresh spinach
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add the milk, ricotta cheese, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring frequently until it wilts down and releases any water, about 2-3 minutes. Remove excess liquid by carefully pressing the spinach with a spatula if needed.

Step 5

Spread the cooked spinach evenly across the bottom of the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, ensuring it evenly coats the surface.

Step 6

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the egg mixture.

Step 7

Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and slightly golden on top.

Step 8

Remove the frittata from the oven and allow it to cool slightly for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Spinach Ricotta Frittata!
