Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add diced peppers and onion; sauté 4 minutes until softened and peppers have light brown edges.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk together 6 eggs with salt, pepper, and a pinch of any herbs you have. Pour into the skillet with the vegetables.

  4. Step 4

    Scatter spinach and cheese over the top. Cook undisturbed over medium heat 5 minutes until the bottom sets and sides start to pull away.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer the skillet to the broiler (or use a preheated broiler tray) and broil 2–3 minutes until the top puffs and turns golden.

  6. Step 6

    Remove from the broiler, let cool 1 minute, then slide onto a plate and serve.
