Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1/4 cup whole milk

1 cup Italian sausage (casings removed, crumbled)

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 medium bell pepper (red or green), diced

1 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Cook the Sausage: In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the crumbled Italian sausage and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.

      Sauté the Vegetables: Add the chopped onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the cherry tomatoes and chopped spinach, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the spinach wilts.

        Whisk the Eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until well combined.

          Combine and Cook: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Gently stir to distribute the ingredients, making sure the sausage and veggies are well incorporated within the egg.

            Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the eggs.

              Bake the Frittata: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is slightly golden.

                Cool and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Slice into wedges and serve warm.

                  Enjoy your Easy Skillet Italian Sausage Frittata for breakfast, brunch, or a quick dinner!
