Ingredients

• 200 grams Cooked noodles (spaghetti or any type)
• 5 large Eggs
• 50 ml Milk
• 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
• 100 grams Cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 50 grams Chopped spinach
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 5 leaves Fresh basil (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.

Step 3

Sauté the minced garlic in the oil for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the halved cherry tomatoes and chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften slightly.

Step 5

Spread the cooked noodles evenly across the skillet, distributing the vegetables throughout the noodles.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the noodles and vegetables, tilting the skillet to ensure an even layer.

Step 7

Cook on medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes or until the edges of the frittata set but the center remains slightly runny.

Step 8

Preheat your oven's broiler (grill function) on high.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil for 3-5 minutes until the top is golden and fully set.

Step 10

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven (handle will be hot!) and let the frittata cool for 2 minutes.

Step 11

Slide the frittata onto a serving plate, garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, and slice into wedges before serving.
