Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
  • 1 cup (70 g / 2.47 oz) sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 cup (30 g / 1.06 oz) shredded spinach
  • 6 bacon slices, cooked and chopped
  • 10 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup (57 g / 2.01 oz) crumbled goat cheese
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • A non-stick, oven-safe skillet is your best friend for this recipe. It ensures the frittata releases easily without any sticking. A well-seasoned cast-iron skillet also works wonders.
  • Feel free to customize! Swap goat cheese for feta or cheddar, or add other veggies like diced bell peppers or onions. Sauté them along with the mushrooms.
  • For extra fluffy eggs, add a splash of milk or heavy cream (about ¼ cup) to the eggs before beating them.

Method
 

  1. Directions1.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large, 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the mushrooms and sauté until they begin to brown, about 3 minutes.
  5. Add the shredded spinach and cooked bacon to the skillet, stirring until the spinach wilts, about 1 minute.
  6. Pour the beaten eggs over the vegetables and bacon.
  7. Continue to cook on the stovetop, using a spatula to gently lift the cooked edges and tilt the pan, allowing the raw egg to run underneath.
  8. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges are set.
  9. Sprinkle the top evenly with crumbled goat cheese, a pinch of sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
  10. Transfer the entire skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, until the frittata is puffed, golden, and set in the center.
  11. Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  12. Cut into 6 wedges and serve immediately.
  13. Don't overcook the eggs on the stovetop. The center should still be quite wet before it goes into the oven to ensure a tender, not rubbery, final texture.
