Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ medium onion
  • 1 medium bell pepper
  • 2 cups spinach
  • ¾ cup gruyere or cheddar, shredded
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl until combined. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Dice the onion into 1/4-inch pieces. Dice the bell pepper the same size.

  3. 3

    Heat olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~90 seconds.

  4. 4

    Add diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until softened and pepper edges begin to color, ~5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add spinach and stir until completely wilted, ~30 seconds.

  6. 6

    Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour egg mixture into the skillet, stirring gently to distribute vegetables.

  7. 7

    Let cook undisturbed for 3 minutes, then sprinkle cheese evenly over the top.

  8. 8

    Transfer skillet to a preheated 450°F broiler. Broil until the top is set and edges are golden, ~3–4 minutes.

  9. 9

    Remove from broiler. Let rest 2 minutes, then slide onto a cutting board or serve directly from the skillet.
