Optional Toppings

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper together, set aside.
- Add the chopped slices of bacon to a 10 or 12 inch oven-safe skillet, on the stove over medium high heat.
- Cook the chopped bacon until crispy, 8-10 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon from the skillet, place the bacon on a paper towel lined plate to drain off the grease.
- Add the onion and bell pepper to the bacon grease in the skillet, on the stove, over medium high heat.
- Sauté for 4-5 minutes, add the spinach and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.
- Stir the cooked, chopped bacon into the egg mixture, then pour the egg and bacon mixture into the skillet.
- Reduce the heat on the stove to medium and cook the frittata for 5 minutes on the stove.
- Top with the crumbled goat cheese, then transfer the frittata to the oven and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, slice and serve topped with avocado slices, cherry tomatoes or diced green onions, if you'd like.
Notes
- Nutritional Info: The nutritional information provided does not include the optional toppings.
- Bacon: If using thick sliced bacon, I recommend only using 4 slices, instead of 6.
- Spinach: If using frozen spinach, only use 1 1/2 cups. Defrost the spinach and squeeze out the moisture with paper towels before adding it to the recipe.
