Mushroom, Spinach, Gruyere Frittata



 

You may have noticed by now that I love the combination of mushroom, spinach, gruyere, and thyme. These are also ingredients that I usually have on hand which happen to go so beautifully together. I always say that breakfast is my “everything but the kitchen sink” meal, because I love to use leftover meats and veggies to use up things that may otherwise go to waste. With that being said, like most of my egg recipes, you can use any ingredients you have in the fridge such as bell peppers, asparagus, tomatoes, leeks, broccoli, feta, mozzarella, cheddar, sausage, ham, bacon, etc. Feel free to get creative.

I think a big misconception about frittatas is that they are very time consuming and difficult to make. This takes me about 30 minutes (at the most) and half of that time is hands-off oven time. Whip this up when you have guests staying over and impress your friends and family with this beautiful spread.

I prefer to use my cast iron to make this a one pan meal, but you can also use a casserole dish or any other oven safe pan. If you try this recipe and love it, snap a pic and share it with us on Instagram and Facebook and follow our Pinterest page. Enjoy!
