Sheet Pan Spinach Tomato Ricotta Frittata
Description
The Sheet Pan Spinach Tomato Ricotta Frittata begins by sautéeing finely chopped shallots, fresh spinach, and halved cherry tomatoes with garlic powder and seasoning. Meanwhile, eggs and egg whites are whisked with ricotta cheese, milk, and Italian seasoning for creaminess and herb flavor.
After heating a rimmed sheet pan in the oven, the egg mixture is poured in and the cooked vegetables evenly distributed on top. Baking at 425°F sets the eggs into a tender, fluffy texture. A sprinkling of Parmesan cheese adds a subtle savory crust.
This frittata serves well for a group breakfast or light lunch with its balanced mix of fresh vegetables and creamy cheese. The sheet pan method requires minimal cleanup and helps the eggs bake evenly.
