Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables & Aromatics

  • 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • Kosher salt, to taste

Egg Mixture

  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp. skim milk
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced pepperoni

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Sauté Vegetables: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a medium oven-proof skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the diced onions and minced garlic, cooking them for about 5 minutes until they become tender and fragrant. Then, add the baby spinach and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until wilted. Season the mixture with kosher salt to taste.
  2. Prepare Egg Mixture and Cook: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, dried oregano, skim milk, and marinara sauce. Season this egg mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pour the mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Cook on the stovetop for 4 to 5 minutes until the edges start to set.
  3. Add Toppings and Bake: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and sliced pepperoni evenly over the top of the partially cooked egg mixture. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 5 to 6 minutes, or until the eggs are completely cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use an oven-proof skillet to easily transfer from stovetop to oven without needing to change pans.
  • Feel free to substitute pepperoni with other toppings like mushrooms, bell peppers, or cooked sausage.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the pepperoni and add extra vegetables or cheese.
  • Make sure the skillet handle is oven-safe or use a handle cover to prevent burns.
  • Let the frittata rest a few minutes before slicing to help it set.
