Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler in your oven.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 10-inch non-stick, oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to brown.
- Add 2 cups of chopped fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted.
- Pour the egg mixture over the mushrooms and spinach in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, lifting the edges of the frittata with a spatula to let the uncooked egg flow underneath.

- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
