Bacon Mushroom Spinach Frittata
So quick, so easy and so perfect as a quick weeknight dinner or fancy brunch – and you can make it ahead of time too!
I can’t remember the last time I made a frittata. I’m not sure why because frittatas are the best thing since sliced bread.
Seriously. It’s like a fancy omelette, except way easier, and there’s absolute no flipping involved at all.
It’s also one of those elegant dishes you can whip up when having brunch, except no one at the table will know just how easy and effortless this is.
Plus, you can’t go wrong with the bacon-mushroom-spinach combo, especially when extra bacon is involved.
Bacon Mushroom Spinach Frittata
Ingredients
- 5 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- Dash of hot sauce
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 slices bacon, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, diced
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 Roma tomato, diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, basil, oregano, thyme and hot sauce; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes, reserving 1 tablespoon excess fat. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Add garlic and mushrooms to the skillet, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, about 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Stir in spinach and tomato until the spinach begins to wilt, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in egg mixture and bacon, reserving 2 tablespoons, until well combined. Cook, undisturbed, until edges are set, about 2 minutes. Top with remaining bacon.
- Place into oven and bake until top is set and golden brown, about 14-15 minutes.
- Serve immediately.

Ok this is gorgeous! About 2 weeks ago I made a spinach and tomato frittata (no bacon for me) and shot it in my blue Le Creueset skillet…great minds 🙂 But your pics are wayyyy more beautiful than mine. I was going to post it as one of those rainy day posts one day, some day…but I just want yours instead now 🙂
