What is a Frittata?
A frittata is an egg based dish that is similar to an omelette and quiche. They are basically a quiche without a crust. The word frittata is an Italian word that translates to “fried.”
Frittatas are typically made with a lot of eggs, a choice of meat or protein, and veggies. This version features ground beef, spinach, and onion.
How To Make
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray an oven safe skillet with avocado oil spray and place on stovetop.
Step 2
In the sprayed skillet over medium heat, add ground beef, chopped bacon and diced onion. Break up meat with spatula.
Step 3
Once browned, discard excess cooking fat. Then, add in coconut aminos, garlic powder and onion powder. Then, stir to combine. Remove from heat.
Step 4
Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, add the eggs and whisk until combined. Next, add in chopped spinach and gently stir.
Step 5
Pour egg mixture over ground beef mixture in skillet.
Step 6
Finally, bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until eggs are set in the middle. Remove from oven and serve Paleo Frittata!
