Spinach Frittata

Spinach Frittata 

Frittatas are basically a baked omelette or a quiche. This is an egg-based dish which is very easy to make. Baking in the oven enriches and incorporates all the flavors. This is a very simple, easy melt in your mouth version. This was inspired by a recipe I saw on Food network. I coupled this with Green Pea soup to make a wholesome meal. Enjoy !
