Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Turn on your oven’s broiler or grill to preheat. Make sure there is a rack placed on the 2nd level to the top.

Step 2

Melt your oil in a medium-sized, oven-safe pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sauté until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add bell pepper and sauté w/ mushrooms for another 3-4 mins.

Step 3

Add spinach and garlic to pan and constantly stir mixture for 1 minute.

Step 4

Beat your eggs together in a bowl with salt + pepper.

Step 5

Turn off the heat + add your eggs to the pan with your vegetables. Swirl the pan + press down the veggies until you have one even layer, covered in egg.

Step 6

Put the entire pan into the oven, under the grill or broiler for 3-4 minutes or until the egg is puffy, set, and slightly golden brown on top.

Step 7

If using parmesan cheese, once out of the oven, sprinkle cheese on top of the frittata and place back in the oven under the broiler for 1 minute or until melted.
