Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 yellow onion (small, chopped)
- 5 ounce fresh spinach
- 6 eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.25 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 slice rustic bread (toasted)
- 2 ounce arugula
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinaigrette
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in an oven-safe 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add chopped yellow onion and sauté until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and evenly spread the spinach and onion mixture in the bottom of the skillet.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and onion in the skillet. Gently stir to distribute the feta and spinach evenly. Cook on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and set in the center.
- While the frittata bakes, toast 2 slices rustic bread. Toss 2 ounces arugula with 1 tablespoon balsamic vinaigrette for the side salad.
- Remove frittata from oven and let rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with toasted rustic bread and the arugula salad.
Notes
Frittata is versatile; feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms if desired. Leftovers are excellent cold or reheated gently.
