Home Kitchen Cheesy Spinach Bacon Frittata

A frittata makes for an unfussy and satisfying meal.

Whether its breakfast, lunch or dinner. Its customizable, high in protein and did I mention unfussy? In this cheesy number, onion and garlic is sautéed and tossed with bacon and spinach before adding eggs, egg whites and, you guessed it cheese (obvi)!

For this Cheesy Spinach Bacon Frittata Set out:

• extra light olive oil – Or substitute with avocado oil.
• onion – Use white, yellow or red onion.
• garlic – Adds distinct punchy flavor.
• kosher salt – Helps soften the onions and garlic while enhancing the flavors in this dish.
• bacon – To keep these on the lighter side, use center cut bacon.
• spinach – Adds vitamins and nutrients and a pop of green.
• eggs – Help the frittata puff up when cooked.
• egg whites – Adds extra protein.
• shredded cheese – Makes this frittata extra savory.
• freshly ground black pepper – Lends distinct bite and flavor.

To that, add onion and garlic with a pinch of kosher salt. Stir and cook until soft and translucent.

Add the chopped cooked bacon and heat through.

Use tongs to toss the spinach, cooking it down until the spinach is soft and wilted.

Pour in the beaten eggs.

And also the egg whites. Do not stir.

Top with freshly ground black pepper and the grated cheese.

And there you have it!

Serve as is or with a simple salad and/or hot sauce.
