Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1/2 cup goat cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup milk (or replace with cream for a richer flavor)

1 small onion, finely diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for added heat)

Fresh herbs (such as basil or parsley) for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C), ensuring it's ready for baking the frittata.

    Sauté the Vegetables: In a medium oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for approximately 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent. Then, stir in the minced garlic, cooking for an additional minute until it becomes fragrant.

      Incorporate the Spinach: Add the chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook while stirring occasionally until the spinach is wilted, which should take about 2-3 minutes.

        Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk these ingredients together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

          Combine the Ingredients: Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Gently use a spatula to stir, ensuring that the spinach and onions are evenly distributed. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese over the top, allowing it to nestle into the egg mixture.

            Cook on the Stovetop: Allow the frittata mixture to cook on the stovetop for about 3-4 minutes without stirring. This will begin to set the edges and create a nice foundation for the frittata.

              Bake the Frittata: Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata has puffed up and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Before serving, garnish the frittata with fresh herbs to add a pop of color and flavor. It can be served warm or at room temperature, sliced into wedges for easy sharing.
