Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ medium onion, diced
½ large bell pepper, diced
1 clove garlic
⅓ cup bacon, crumbled
3 tablespoons coconut oil, (or whatever your preferred cooking oil is. Even butter, really)
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup parmesan cheese
8 eggs
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
8 oz spinach, chopped, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to broil
  • Using a 10", oven-safe skillet, saute the onions, bell peppers, and garlic in 2 tbsp of oil. Once the veggies are nearly done (about 4 minutes), add bacon crumbles and cream cheese to the mix and cook until a creamy mixture. Scoop the veggie/bacon mix into a bowl to cool while leaving the oil behind. Ensure that excess oil is drained.
  • In the same skillet, add the hopped spinach. Cook it down until it starts to wilt, then place it on a paper-towel-lined plate to cool, ensuring the excess oil drips off.
  • In the onion bowl, add the parmesan cheese and mix until even clumps form. Then add the 8 eggs, salt, and pepper, and whisk until combined.
  • In the same skillet, heat the remaining oil before pouring the egg/veggie mixture into it. Let it cook for 30 seconds, stirring gently with whatever utensil you used before, then evenly cover the top with spinach. Let cook for 5 minutes, or until the edges of the mixture start turning a light brown.
  • Place the skillet in the oven with the broil on. Cook for 5-8 minutes, until the surface is golden brown.
  • Take out the skillet, cool, and serve while warm.
