Cast Iron Frittata

MUST-HAVE Ingredients

8 eggs

½ cup shredded cheese (sharp cheddar or gruyere work)

⅓  cup spinach – thinly sliced

1 pint cherry tomatoes – halved

Basil

Garlic

Directions

  1. Chop up veggies

  2. Place a 10” cast iron skillet over medium heat

  3. Add a bit of butter or oil and sauté thinly sliced onions until they start to caramelize. If using mushrooms or garlic, these could be sautéed together as well.

  5. Once the onions are caramelized, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add cherry tomatoes to the skillet, followed by the egg mixture.

  6. Sprinkle cheese over the egg mixture and add spinach. If you have any nice-to-have ingredients like sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and a pre-cooked meat/meat alternative, now's the time to include them for extra flavor.

  7. Cover the skillet with a lid or tightly wrap it in aluminum foil. Allow the frittata to cook for about 20 minutes, checking progress around the 10-minute mark. Cooking times may vary due to the nature of your heat source.
