Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
- 3 cups fresh baby spinach
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbles
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler to high. Melt butter in a 10- to 12-inch oven-safe sauté pan or well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender. Add the spinach and cook another minute or so, until spinach is wilted.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and milk in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Add eggs to the skillet with the spinach and mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring gently every minute or so. Once the eggs begin to set but are still slightly runny on top, sprinkle on the feta cheese.
- Move the skillet under the broiler (in the oven) and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the eggs are set.
- Slide the frittata out onto a cutting board, slice, and serve. Or you can slice and serve straight from the skillet.
Notes
- You don’t need to follow this exact recipe when it comes to the vegetables you use in your frittata. For an 8 egg frittata, stick to about no more than 2 cups of fresh vegetables, depending on the vegetable. With greens like spinach or kale, you can add more.
- To use leftover veggies in the frittata, re-warm them in the skillet before mixing with the egg mixture. Use about 2 cups of previously cooked vegetables.
- A frittata keeps for a few days in the fridge and reheats well. It’s even a great option for lunches. Put between a couple of slices of bread or crumble in a tortilla for a quick and easy meal. A frittata will also freeze well for up to 3 months.
