10-Minute Spinach Cheddar Frittata: Easy Weeknight Meal
This post may contain affiliate or sponsored links. Please read our disclosure policy.
Sometimes it’s 5 p.m., and you have few groceries in the fridge and no plan for dinner.
That was me one night last week. Thankfully, I had eggs, cheese, milk, and some fresh spinach to work with. And this super easy, cheap 10 Minute Spinach Cheddar Frittata was born. All the equipment you need is a large oven-safe pan (I used a 12-inch) and a bowl to stir the egg mixture.
What is a frittata and how is it different than an omelet, you ask? A frittata is started over the stove for a few minutes and then this one is finished under the broiler in the oven for a few minutes. It requires no stirring or flipping, which can be a mess when making an omelet.
In other words, it’s hard to screw up this recipe. Now that’s my kind of weeknight meal! Add in some fruit and whole grain toast, and you’ve got a well-rounded dinner or breakfast.

Instructions
- Preheat the broiler to high.
