Ingredients

  • 6 whole eggs
  • 1 large or 1.5 cups bell peppers, diced (any color)
  • ¾ cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • ½ medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, packed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. 2

    Add diced peppers and onion; sauté 4 minutes until softened and peppers have light brown edges.

  3. 3

    Whisk together 6 eggs with salt, pepper, and a pinch of any herbs you have. Pour into the skillet with the vegetables.

  5. 5

    Transfer the skillet to the broiler (or use a preheated broiler tray) and broil 2–3 minutes until the top puffs and turns golden.

  6. 6

    Remove from the broiler, let cool 1 minute, then slide onto a plate and serve.
