Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add the chopped spinach and green onions to the skillet, stirring gently for another 2 minutes until the spinach has wilted.
- Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet, making sure the vegetables are evenly distributed. Gently fold in the cooked and flaked salmon.
- Allow the frittata to cook on the stovetop for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the frittata.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the frittata is firm in the center and golden brown on top.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
