  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Add 1 tbsp butter to a skillet over medium heat on the stovetop. Once the butter has melted, add the spinach and stir until mostly wilted.
  4. Add the spinach, tomatoes and swiss cheese into the egg mixture. Whisk gently to combine.
  5. Spray a 9 or 10” cast iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and distribute any spinach or tomatoes so that they are even throughout the frittata.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 - 30 minutes, until the edges are set and lightly golden brown.

Notes

  • The easiest thing to swap in this recipe is the cheese – feel free to sub cheddar, provolone, mozzarella or other cheese that you love!
  • As far as veggies, you can easily add or sub but just keep in mind that some vegetables may need to be cooked first like mushrooms and peppers.
  • You can also add meat like cooked bacon, ham or even sausage – once you know how to make one it’s easy to customize every time you make it!
  • You might notice that it puffs up in the oven, but once you take it out it will flatten and that’s fine! They most important thing is that it has the right texture – it should be light and fluffy and not rubbery, which means it was overbaked.
  • Your leftovers will keep well for up to four days in the refrigerator. You can even make a frittata ahead of time for easy meals. It’s delicious cold, at room temperature or you can warm it up.
