Ingredients
- 12 eggs whisked just until the egg yolks and whites are blended
- 3 tablespoons whole milk {or cream}
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup red onion diced
- 1 cup fresh spinach roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives chopped
- 1/2 cup roasted red peppers chopped
- 1/2 cup artichoke hearts quartered
- 1/2 cup kalamata olives halved
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled, divided
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese divided
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add your whole milk and salt and whisk until the egg yolks and whites are blended.
- Stir in half of the mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese until combined and all of the feta cheese. Stir in the chives to the eggs. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a 12″ non-stick skillet or cast iron skillet. Add the red onion, spinach, oregano, salt and pepper and cook until the spinach is wilted. Stir in the roasted red peppers, artichokes and olives.
- Whisk the eggs again and pour the eggs over the vegetable mixture using a spatula to spread it evenly over the vegetables.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese on the frittata.
- Bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the eggs start to puff up and appear set and the edges are just just browning.
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let cool. Cut into triangles and serve with fresh parsley.
Notes
- You can feel free to swap the vegetables for any you like. I think any bell pepper works nicely as well as zucchini, carrots or cauliflower.
- Feel free to use other spices like coriander, cumin, za'atar and turmeric.You can
- substitute goat cheese in the place of the feta cheese.
