Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1/4 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)

1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), diced

1 medium onion, diced

1 cup mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or feta for a twist)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh herbs (parsley or chives), for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Sauté the Veggies: In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

      Add Mushrooms and Spinach: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they're tender. Stir in the chopped spinach and let it wilt for about 1 minute.

        Whisk Eggs and Milk: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

          Combine Veggies and Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Gently stir to combine, ensuring the veggies are evenly distributed.

            Sprinkle Cheese: Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the frittata mixture.

              Cook on Stovetop: Let the frittata cook undisturbed on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set.

                Bake in Oven: Transfer the skillet to your preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed up and the center is set.

                  Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Cut into wedges, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve warm or at room temperature.
