Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray your baking dish with olive oil or nonstick spray.
  2. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add fresh spinach and sauté for about 2 minutes until wilted.
  3. Spread the wilted spinach evenly in the prepared casserole dish. If using, add onions and sprinkle with Spike seasoning and ground pepper.
  4. Layer the grated mozzarella cheese over the spinach and onions.
  5. In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat until smooth, then pour over the spinach and cheese in the casserole dish.
  6. Gently stir the mixture in the casserole dish with a fork to incorporate layers without overmixing.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until eggs are set and top is golden brown.
  8. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Perfect on its own or with fresh fruit.
  9. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat slices in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
