If you’re looking for a quick and satisfying meal that’s both healthy and delicious, a Spinach and Feta Frittata is the way to go. This dish combines the light, fluffy texture of eggs with the savory richness of feta cheese and the fresh earthiness of spinach. Whether you enjoy it for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner, this frittata is packed with flavor and nutrients, making it a great choice for any occasion.
What makes a frittata special is its versatility. You can make it with whatever ingredients you have on hand, but the combination of spinach and feta is a classic for a reason. The spinach wilts into the eggs, providing a burst of green goodness, while the feta adds a creamy, tangy bite that pairs perfectly with the mild flavor of the eggs. A bit of garlic and onion can be sautéed beforehand for extra depth, and a sprinkle of herbs like dill or oregano adds an aromatic finish.
Cooking a frittata is incredibly simple. Start by sautéing your spinach until wilted, then pour in beaten eggs, letting them cook slowly. You don’t need to flip the frittata like an omelet, instead, it’s finished off in the oven, where it puffs up and gets golden on top. The result is a beautifully set frittata with a creamy interior and a crispy exterior.
The best part? You can serve this dish warm, at room temperature, or even chilled, making it perfect for any time of day. Pair it with a light salad or a slice of crusty bread for a full meal. You can also switch up the vegetables or cheese to suit your taste, but spinach and feta will always be a reliable, delicious combo.
A Spinach and Feta Frittata is a quick, flavorful, and nutritious meal that feels both indulgent and wholesome. Whether you’re feeding a crowd or just making enough for yourself, it’s a dish that’s easy to prepare, satisfying to eat, and sure to become a staple in your kitchen.

Spinach and feta? What a combo! My kids loved it too!
I don’t know, my kids hate spinach! But maybe I’ll try it again with some cheese on top.
So glad to hear your kids loved it! Spinach and feta is a great way to get them to eat greens!
Eh, it was okay. I prefer my eggs scrambled, not baked. Just personal preference, I guess.
I get that! Scrambled eggs have that creamy texture that’s hard to beat. Have you tried making a scrambled version with spinach and feta?
This frittata is amazing! The spinach and feta are a perfect combo. My family loved it! Definitely a 5!
It looks good, but I’m not sure if my kids would eat it. They’re picky about greens. Maybe I’ll try it without the spinach.
I’m so glad you loved it! Spinach and feta are a match made in heaven. I could eat this every day! 😍
Perfect for breakfast. I added some tomatoes and it was still yum!
Yum! Spinach is good for you. I always eat it when I can. Will try this recipe!
ok i tried it didn like the feta
Instructions were a bit confusing! Should I use a skillet or can it just go in a baking dish? Not sure, but it tasted fine.
I had the same issue at first! The skillet works best because of the stovetop cooking, but you can use a baking dish! Just pay attention to the cooking time!
Skillet is the way to go! 😃 But if you’re really lost, a baking dish should be fine too. Just might not get that golden top!
Loved the combo of spinach and feta! I will definitely make this again.
So happy you liked it! The spinach and feta combo is a classic. It’s so easy to make too!
How can you call this a recipe? It’s just eggs with stuff! Plus, isn’t dill for pickles? Haha. 2 stars.
I think it’s a simple dish that’s actually quite tasty! Eggs are versatile and dill adds a nice flavor. Don’t knock it till you try it! 😊
This is the best frittata ever! I made it for brunch and everyone loved it. Thanks for sharing!
I’m glad to hear that! This frittata is indeed a winner. I love adding extra veggies too!
I tried this but my frittata ended up all soggy, how do you get it fluffy? 🤔
This recipe is too complicated for me. Just scrambled eggs are easier…
This frittata was absolutely delicious! My kids ate it all up!
I mean, it’s just eggs and spinach. I guess it’s okay, but nothing to rave about. Meh.
I think it’s delicious! The feta adds a lot of flavor to the eggs. You gotta give it a try!
Great recipe! I added some cherry tomatoes for a pop of color and flavor. Yum!
Too many eggs for my taste. I think 4 would be better.
I think adding just 4 eggs would make it too light and not as filling. Just my opinion!
This frittata was amazing! So tasty and easy to make. Definitely a keeper!
I didn’t have dill, so I used parsley and it still turned out yummy. Just a heads up for others!
why you gotta bake it? just scramble the eggs with the stuff. Much faster!
But baking gives it that fluffy texture! Scrambled eggs just don’t compare for a frittata.
I mixed up dill with parsley… oops! Still tasty though.
Haha, that happens! Dill and parsley are kinda similar. Glad it still turned out tasty! 😊
This was so delicious! The feta adds a nice tang. I’ll definitely make it again!
Too many eggs! I just dont like eggs much. 🙁
I don’t know about this. It looks kinda weird and doesn’t sound filling.
I think it looks great! The combo of feta and spinach must be delicious! You’re missing out if you don’t try it!
But like, can you really call this a frittata? I thought it was more like a quiche without crust.
I get what you’re saying, but a frittata is more egg-based. This recipe seems legit to me!
Idk, I thought frittatas didn’t have a crust? This one sounds kinda like a quiche though. 🤷♂️
I don’t get how you can bake eggs like this. Sounds weird. I’m skeptical about it.
Too many eggs! 😭 I think I’ll just scramble them next time. or make an omelette. Idk.
Honestly, I didn’t like it much. The spinach was too mushy for my taste.
I forgot the dill and it still tasted good! Just a little bland, though.
Glad it still turned out okay! Dill is just one of those things that adds a pop, but it sounds like you did great without it!
Bland? No way! You could just add more spices next time! Just throw some hot sauce or something!
Looks good, but I don’t like feta cheese. Can I use cheddar instead?
You can definitely use cheddar instead of feta! It will give it a different flavor, but it should still be tasty. Enjoy!
Super delish! I added some tomatoes and it took it to a whole new level! 5 stars for me!
Too many eggs if you ask me. I used 4 instead and it turned out fine.
This recipe is too much work for breakfast. I like simple scrambled eggs, no fuss. Sorry, but I’m giving it a 3.
Frittata? Isn’t that just a fancy omelette? Good but could be better. I’ll stick with omelettes. 3.
