Spinach Mushroom & Feta Frittata


For those of you who don't know, A frittata is yummy an Italian-style flat omelet baked in a skillet. It's perfect for brunch, special occasions or even dinner. It's a great option similar to quiche for those who want to spend less time cooking and reduce on the calories added from a crust. I use a cast Iron skillet, but any baking dish will do!

Spinach Mushroom & Feta Frittata

8 eggs
1/2 C whole milk
3 C fresh spinach
2 C sliced mushrooms
1/2 red onion finely chopped
1 red bell pepper finely chopped
1 c crumbled feta cheese
1 T dried basil
1/2 t dried thyme
1/2 t dried oregano
1/2 t dried cayenne pepper
1 T salt
1 T olive oil


Put olive oil in a cast iron skillet and into oven while the oven preaheats at 475 F. Once preheated, take pan from the oven and add onions, bell pepper, spinach & mushrooms, return to oven for 10 minutes. In a bowl mix remaining ingredients. Remove pan from oven and pour mixture over cooked vegetables, return to oven for 15 minutes or until slightly brown on top.

Serve with rosemary potatoes, french toast and orange juice or whatever pleases you!
