  • * Fresh spinach leaves chopped - 2 cups (474 ml)
  • * Large eggs - 6

  • * Onion finely diced - ½ cup (118 ml)
  • * Garlic cloves minced - 2
  • * Grated cheese your choice, optional - ½ cup (118 ml)

Method
 

  1. Begin by draining the Tuna and setting it aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add diced onions and garlic, sautéing until translucent.
  5. Introduce the red bell pepper and corn kernels. Stir for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add the chopped spinach, cooking until wilted.
  7. Mix in the Tuna, stirring gently to evenly distribute it.
  8. Pour the whisked eggs over the Tuna and vegetable mixture, ensuring it covers everything evenly.
  9. Allow the mixture to cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the edges start to set.
  10. Sprinkle with cheese (if using) and transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the frittata is firm and golden.
  11. Remove, let it cool slightly, slice and serve!

Notes

1. Fresh vegetables can be substituted with frozen ones – ensure they're thawed and drained to avoid extra moisture.
2. For a dairy-free version, omit the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.
3. Using a non-stick skillet makes the transition from stove to oven smoother.
