Tomato Spinach Frittata
Description
This frittata starts by gently cooking diced onion and red bell pepper in coconut oil until softened, then adding chopped spinach which wilts quickly. Eggs mixed with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning are then poured evenly over the vegetables in an oven-safe pan. Tomato slices are arranged on top just before baking.
Baking at 350°F completes cooking the eggs, setting them into a fragile yet firm texture with lightly browned edges on top. The fresh tomato slices on top remain tender and add a subtle acidity contrasting with the mild vegetables and seasoned eggs.
Served warm, the frittata suits breakfast, brunch, or a light meal. It combines vegetables and protein in one pan, making preparation straightforward. The inclusion of Italian seasoning imparts balanced herbaceous notes without overwhelming the dish.
