Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Dice the red and green peppers. Finely chop the onion. Roughly chop the spinach.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced red and green peppers and the chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and starting to caramelize.
- Add the salt and black pepper, stirring to combine evenly.
- Add the roughly chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
- In a large bowl, whisk the 8 egg whites until slightly frothy.
- Pour the whisked egg whites over the sautéed vegetable mixture in the skillet. Gently stir to ensure the vegetables are evenly distributed.
- Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
- Cook on the stove for 2-3 minutes to let the edges begin to set.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set and slightly golden on top.
- Remove the skillet from the oven (be careful, the handle will be hot).
- Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious roasted red and green pepper frittata with feta and spinach!
Tips:
- To ensure even roasting, cut the peppers and onion into similar-sized strips.
- Use fresh spinach for a more vibrant flavor, but frozen spinach can be a good substitute if properly drained.
- Whisk the egg whites thoroughly to create a light and fluffy texture.
- For a more robust flavor, add some minced garlic or herbs like basil or parsley.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat to avoid burning the bottom while ensuring the top sets properly.
- Finish the frittata under the broiler for a golden-brown top, but keep an eye on it to prevent overcooking.
