Smoked Salmon Frittata
Matt came across a recipe for this a few years back and we have made it many times adding and changing things up with it and we finally settled on this…mainly because we couldn’t ever find the original recipe! 🙂 Many of the other recipes I’ve seen for smoked salmon frittatas were loaded with different cheeses and other ingredients. This one is so simple and refreshing and we really both feel that it doesn’t even need cheese. Pair this with your favorite english muffin or a slice of toast and you have a healthy and filling breakfast or brunch!

- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 20 minutes
- Yield: 6 one piece servings or 4 large 1x
Ingredients
- 1 TBL olive oil
- 4 oz. smoked salmon, cut into small pieces
- 3 oz baby spinach
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- zest of 1 lemon
- 6 egg whites
- 2 whole eggs
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/2 cup almond milk or milk of your choice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375F degrees. In a small mixing bowl add eggs, egg whites, milk, lemon zest, salmon and black pepper and whisk until combined.
Heat oil in a cast iron, or other oven safe pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and toss until just barely starting to wilt. Add garlic and continue cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Next, pour in the egg mixture, stir to combine and cook for about 3-5 minutes until the eggs start to bubble and firm up just a bit.
Place in the preheated oven for approximately 8-10 minutes. Serve immediately
Notes
If you are using a cast iron pan sure to coat it all with a touch of oil before you start to make sure it doesn’t stick to the sides.
