Spinach Frittata

This spinach frittata is one of my dads favorite dishes. How I found this recipe is a long story so I will make it short. Where we live we have a Pie Day contest on Pie Day at our extension office. So I wanted to enter a savory pie and sweet pie (Next post will be the sweet pie). I don't really like to make stuff like meatball pie or beef pot pie so I thought of doing a quiche. A lady from my church gave my some food network magizines and I was just looking at them when I happened upon the recipe. The Spinach Frittata was made by Trisha Yearwood. I made it before the contest so I could see how it tasted. It tasted so good! You got some vegetables, egg, sausage, and cheese all in one bite. It was so delicious! So here is the recipe you have been waiting for.

Spinach Frittata
4 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 tsp salt 
1/2 tsp pepper
1 cup shredded cheese (any kind you want)
1/2 cup cooked sausage 
1 cup grape tomatoes, quartered
2 Tbsp butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cups spinach

Preheat oven to broil. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and pepper. Fold in cheese, tomatoes, and sausage and set aside. In a medium oven-safe pan (I used a cast-iron skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Pour egg mixture over the spinach and cook until almost set, 2-4 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven and broil until golden brown on top, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven; turn out onto a serving plate. Enjoy!
