Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 3 ounces fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup mozzarella
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat you broiler to high. In a bowl mix together the eggs, cream, ricotta, parsley, chives, dill, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until this is thoroughly combined.
  • In an 8 inch nonstick skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium/low heat. Add the spinach and season with salt and pepper. Saute this for 1 to 2 minutes until the spinach begins to wilt. Add the egg mixture and stir, moving all the eggs and spinach around with a rubber spatula until the eggs begin to set. This should take 2-3 minutes.
  • Even out the eggs and top with the mozzarella cheese, place under the broiler for 3-5 minutes until the cheese is brown and the middle is set. Remove from the oven and let it set for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges of the fritatta with the spatula and tap the skillet firmly on counter or cutting board. The fritatta should slide our with minimal effort. If it wants to stick just pay attention to where it is sticking and gently slide the spatula in the area it is stuck to loosen.
  • Cut into 6 wedges and serve
