Ingredients
6 Eggs3 cups Spinach1 cup Onion, chopped1/4 cup Red Bell Pepper, chopped1/4 cup Yellow Bell Pepper, chopped2 TB Garlic Powder (or to taste)1/4 cup Feta Cheese2 TB Olive Oil
Directions
Preheat oven to Broil.

Beat eggs together with 2 TB of water. Add Feta Cheese to mixture.

Heat oil in a non-stick pan, and saute onion & peppers until soft. Add spinach to mixture and cook until any moisture from the spinach is gone.

Combine together with egg mixture. Add a little more oil to the pan if it looks too dry, and bring it to medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook for 3 minutes.

Place the pan under the broiler with broil-high settings for 3 minutes to set the top side of the frittata. Personally, I like to transfer the frittata into a pie pan at this stage. But either way works.

Cut into wedges and serve warm.

Serves 4.

    Very good - I used chopped garlic instead of garlic powder. Even though it would increase the calories, I would use more (1/2 cup) feta cheese. - 1/11/10

    The Feta cheese gives this recipe a tangy zip. I used frozen spinach and only used a red pepper. Very tasty and simple to make. Best of all my meat loving husband doesn't mind the occasional egg bake. :) - 10/29/09
