Ingredients

  • 4 ounce diced pancetta
  • 10 large eggs
  • 1 container grape tomatoes sliced
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 2 cups white cheddar cheese shredded, divided

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a large 12” oven-safe skillet, add 4 oz. pancetta or bacon and saute over medium-high heat until crisp. Turn off the heat and transfer crisped pancetta or bacon to a paper towel lined plate and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the 10 eggs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Add all of the sliced grape tomatoes followed by 4 cups of spinach, 1 ½ cups of cheese, and the crisped pancetta or bacon. Continue whisking to combine then pour into the skillet you cooked the pancetta in (or a 9” pie plate) and sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top.
  • Transfer to oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the center is set. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • If serving right away, slice into triangles and serve alongside a hearty salad.
