Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups fresh spinach, chopped

Instructions
- Preheat the broiler in your oven.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside.
- In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 small diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Add 4 cups of chopped fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese over the top of the frittata.
- Place the skillet under the broiler and broil for 3-4 minutes, until the top is set and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
The Spinach and Feta Frittata has a rich history dating back to ancient Greece, where feta cheese was a staple ingredient. This Mediterranean dish gained popularity in the United States in the 20th century, thanks to the growing interest in Mediterranean cuisine. Renowned chefs like Yotam Ottolenghi and Ina Garten have popularized this dish, infusing it with their own unique twists. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in Mediterranean-inspired restaurants, particularly in regions with a strong Greek or Italian culinary influence. The key to a perfect Spinach and Feta Frittata lies in using fresh spinach, high-quality feta cheese, and the right blend of herbs and spices. For a delicious alternative, consider adding sun-dried tomatoes or Kalamata olives for an extra burst of flavor.
