Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk or heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • ½ cup onion, diced
  • ½ cup bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup spinach or other leafy greens
  • ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta)
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Sausage or mushrooms (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk or cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Heat olive oil or butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and bell pepper for 3–4 minutes until softened.
  4. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Stir in any optional ingredients such as sausage or mushrooms.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables. Gently stir once to distribute evenly and sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
  6. Cook on the stovetop for 2–3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the center is fully set and no longer jiggly.
  8. Remove from oven, cool slightly, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • Sauté vegetables first to remove excess moisture and prevent a watery texture.
  • For a dairy-free version, skip the cheese and use unsweetened almond milk.
  • Add diced potatoes or sweet potatoes for a heartier meal.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze individual portions for up to 2 months and thaw overnight before reheating.
  • Can be enjoyed warm, at room temperature, or cold.
