Ingredients
For the frittata:
- 8 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons half and half or milk
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 2 cups of baby spinach
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 4 ounces of smoked salmon, cut into pieces
- 1⁄4 cup crumbled feta cheese
For serving:
- Sliced avocado
- Lemon wedges
- Fresh dill
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half or milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until translucent.
- Add the spinach and tomato and continue cooking for 2–3 minutes more until the spinach wilts.
- Pour in the egg mixture and scatter the smoked salmon and feta over the top.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes without stirring to allow the bottom layer to set.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes until the frittata is puffed and set.
- Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh dill.
- Serve warm with sliced avocado and lemon wedges. Enjoy!
Notes
- Be sure to use good quality smoked salmon for the best flavor.
- Cooking the frittata over gentle heat prevents the eggs from getting rubbery.
- Letting it rest before slicing allows the frittata to settle into prettier slices.
- Feel free to switch up the veggie and cheese additions to suit your tastes.
- Bake in individual ramekins for easy portioning.
