1 (6 ounce) bag Baby Spinach
3/4 lb yukon gold potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch strips

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack about 5 inches from heating element and set oven to broil.
  • Whisk eggs, half-and-half, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in bowl until combined. Stir in 1/4 cup cheese.
  • Microwave spinach in large microwave-safe bowl, covered with plastic wrap, on high power until wilted, about 90 seconds. Transfer spinach to clean dish towel and squeeze out excess liquid.
  • Microwave potatoes in now-empty bowl, covered with plastic wrap, on high power until tender, about 5 minutes.

  • Sprinkle remaining cheese over top.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the frittata will be. Look for fresh spinach, firm potatoes, and high-quality bacon.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and the frittata will be less flavorful.
  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the frittata from sticking and make it easier to flip.
  • Cook the frittata over medium-low heat: This will help it cook evenly and prevent the bottom from burning.
  • Flip the frittata carefully: Once the bottom is golden brown, carefully flip the frittata using a spatula. Be careful not to break it up.
  • Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature: The frittata can be served immediately, or it can be cooled and served later. It is also delicious the next day.
