Ingredients (serves 4):
– 8 large eggs (farm-fresh if you can get them!)
– 6 strips of thick-cut bacon (because… bacon 😍)
– 2 cups fresh spinach

– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Girl, this is when the magic starts!
1. In a cast-iron skillet (my favorite!), cook that bacon until it’s nice and crispy. Remove and chop it up, but leave that gorgeous bacon fat in the pan.
1. Add your diced onion to the bacon fat (I know, I know, it’s heavenly), and sauté until translucent. Throw in that minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
1. Add your spinach and watch it wilt down – it’s like a green magic show in your pan!
1. While that’s happening, whisk together your eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Make it nice and fluffy, ladies!
1. Pour the egg mixture into your skillet, sprinkle with both kinds of cheese (because one type is never enough), and add your chopped bacon back in.
1. Pop that baby in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is slightly golden.
Pro tip: Want to make this even more amazing? Add a few cherry tomatoes on top for a pop of color and flavor. Just don’t tell the strict keto police! 😉
This frittata is perfect for meal prep, and honestly, it tastes even better the next day. I love having a slice with my morning coffee while scrolling through Instagram – it makes me feel fancy without all the work!
