You can eat it at any temperature and it saves well: and it’s great for using up odds and ends in your veggie drawer. In fact, we think it’s one of the essential non-recipes every home cook should know!
Ingredients
8 large eggs
¼ cup milk (whole or 2%)
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
½ cup feta crumbles, plus more for sprinkling*
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 ounces (about 6 cups) packed spinach leaves
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Fresh ground black pepper
Optional: fresh basil leaves, for the garnish
Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, oregano, kosher salt, and fresh ground pepper. Whisk in the Parmesan and feta cheese.
- In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Sauté the spinach leaves, stirring until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes, spreading it around as you cook so that you spread oil up the sides of the pan.
- Add the garlic powder and 2 pinches kosher salt and sauté for another minute.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. If necessary, use a fork to rearrange the spinach in an even layer so you can see if on the top.
- Sprinkle the top with a little more feta cheese. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes over medium heat until the bottom is set and lightly browned, checking for doneness by pulling back the side with a spatula.
- Place the skillet in the oven and bake 10 to 12 minutes until the top is puffed, set, and slightly browned.
- Let rest for 10 minutes, then cut into wedges and serve warm, with sour cream or crème fraiche if desired.
- Leftovers save well: refrigerate for up to 5 days and serve them cold, room temperature, or warmed.
