Baked Caramelized Mushroom, Onion, Spinach, and Swiss Cheese Frittata

Baked Caramelized Mushroom, Onion, Spinach, and Swiss Cheese Frittata

I like making frittatas on Sunday mornings so I can have quick, healthy, and easy breakfasts for a few days during the week. They are so easy to make, can use up whatever you have in the refrigerator, and are a healthy way to start your day. I found some mushrooms, onions, spinach, and Swiss in the fridge so that’s what I used in this frittata but it would also be good with bacon, ham, or sausage in there too.

How to Make a Baked Caramelized Mushroom, Onion, Spinach, and Swiss Cheese Frittata

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a tart pan with cooking spray.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and mushrooms then cook stirring often until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Add the spinach to the skillet then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Toss until well combined.

Place some of the mushroom & onion mixture and Swiss cheese into the bottom of the tart pan. Combine the eggs with the milk then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Whisk the eggs until they are mixed thoroughly.

  1. Pam- I have said this many times, but it’s true. You are the QUEEN of frittatas and baked eggs recipes! Seriously, every recipe I have tried is always delicious! This recipe is no exception and I can’t wait to try it!

  2. It’s in the oven, but looks and smells great! Thanks for sharing. Love your philosophy, organic, low fat.

  3. Just made but switched it up and added bacon.
    I’ll let my a know how it tastes
    BTW made this with gluten free crust!

  4. 5 stars
    Lovely recipe! We didn’t have spinach. So, I swapped in two small sweet red peppers, chopped. I used Jarlsberg for the cheese cubes and sprinkled finely shredded Swiss throughout the eggs because we just love cheese. Mine could’ve used a touch more salt. Next time, I may add crushed bacon… Yum! This recipe is definitely going into rotation.
    One tip: if you have a lollipop type cooking thermometer, you’ll know it’s perfectly done when it reaches 185-195°.
