Notes

  • For a different flavor profile, substitute feta with goat cheese or Boursin.
  • Feel free to substitute vegetables such as zucchini, leeks, or other sweet peppers for the red bell pepper and red onion.
  • Add fresh herbs like basil or thyme for additional aroma.
  • If using frozen spinach, ensure it’s thoroughly thawed and excess moisture is squeezed out before adding it to the dish.
  • If you want to make this vegan, use a plant-based egg alternative and a vegan cheese substitute.
  • If using a cast-iron skillet, ensure it’s oven-safe and adjust the cooking time if necessary.
