Savory, aromatic, and light, the Greens and Herbs Frittata is a rustically nourishing way to begin your spring morning.

Ingredients

  • ¼ tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 6 medium eggs
  • ½ tsp Fresh Oregano
  • 1 tsp Fresh Parsley
  • ¼ tsp Fine Pink Salt
  • ¼ lbs Fresh Spinach
  • 1 tsp Fresh Thyme

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Cook spinach with a few tablespoons of water on high heat in a skillet until wilted and water boiled off. Set aside and dry the skillet.
  • Crack eggs into a large mixing bowl. Beat the egg mixture vigorously to whip air into it, which will create a fluffier product.
  • Chop spices. Fold spinach, spices, and all ingredients gently into the egg mixture.
  • Heat a well greased cast iron skillet until a drop of water dances on the surface. The pan should be hot enough so that the egg sizzles immediately upon contact.
  • Add the egg mixture. Immediately place in preheated the oven.
  • Bake twenty minutes or until egg begins to brown.

Spa Index Kitchen Notes

The idea behind a frittata is that the edge should be roasted while the center fully cooked but not too dry. To accomplish this, sear the eggs in a hot frying pan then place in the oven. Substitute Kale or other greens if you have them on hand.
