Quick and Easy Vegetarian Spinach Frittata

This vegetarian spinach frittata makes an easy skillet meal. Golden sautéed onions, wilted spinach and chunks of melty cheese, with thyme-seasoned fresh eggs. Pour the mix into a skillet and cook stovetop!

For more deliciousness, sprinkle with cheddar cheese and pop under the broiler. Ta-da!

You can vary your frittata recipe in so many directions. You can switch up the greens–instead of spinach, sub in chard, or arugula or beet greens. Any combination of dark leafy greens.

Use whatever cheese you want, especially what you have on hand. This recipe uses two kinds of cheese, fresh mozzarella, and for a golden brown finish, grated Kerrygold cheddar.

Fresh thyme is the perfect herbal addition to a spinach frittata–it goes so well with eggs. But if fresh parsley or basil or cilantro is what you have, mince it and add.

Serve your spinach frittata warm, right from the broiler. That said, a frittata is also delicious chilled, served with a salad.

I’ve got more frittata for you–this vegetarian rainbow chard frittata–a little different but the same concept–quick, easy and delicious!

Farm fresh eggs–tiny perfection. There is just no equivalent to eggs from chickens that gallivant freely and happily. Fresh farm eggs make a delicious spinach frittata!

    I made this and it was great! also added Mushrooms with the spinach and I used gouda cheese because it is what I had. Thats the only differences…besides that, I dont have a cast iron skillet so I didnt broil in the oven…instead I slid a spatula around the Frittata and made it loose then slid it onto a plate…then flipped the plate over skillet and cooked the other side!

    • Hi Caitlin–I love it when readers like you take a basic recipe and switch things up using what you have on hand! Sometimes I make frittatas in a non-stick skillet and flip it over like you did! Thanks for writing! Reply · 3 September, 2016
