Ingredients

  • Large eggs - 4
  • Milk - 60 ml
  • Spinach - 50 g, chopped
  • Bell pepper (red or yellow) - 1, diced
  • Onion - 1/2, diced
  • Cherry tomatoes - 100 g, halved
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Feta cheese - 50 g, crumbled (optional)

Steps

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
  4. Add the chopped spinach and halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach has wilted.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Stir gently to distribute the veggies.
  6. If using, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped basil over the top.
  7. Cook on the stovetop for about 3-4 minutes until the edges start to set.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center.
  9. Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve warm.
