Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of oil.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, diced yellow bell pepper, and fresh spinach. Cook for another 3 minutes or until the spinach is wilted and the bell pepper is slightly softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika until fully combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, leaving a small handful aside for topping. Then, fold in the sautéed vegetables from the skillet.
Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the egg bake is set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
