Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup coarsely chopped yellow onion
  • 4 ounces spinach, chopped
  • 8 eggs (8 whites and 4 yolks), lightly beaten
  • 6 cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 ounces fresh mozzarella, shredded or chopped
  • 2 tablespoons torn basil
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425F.
  2. Heat the oil in a medium cast iron pan or oven-proof skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until softened.
  4. Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
  5. Pour the eggs over.
  6. Scatter the tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil on top (they should sink slightly).
  7. Lower the heat slightly and cook until mostly set, about 5 minutes.
  8. Transfer to the oven and bake 5 to 10 minutes (ovens vary so much! It took me 9 minutes), until fully set and cooked through.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  10. Cut into slices and serve (or refrigerate overnight).
