"Serving frittatas for breakfast or dinner, these have saved me on more hungry weeknights, as long as I have a few vegetables and maybe a little meat to throw in a skillet; everything to love about a quiche without the fuss of a crust and ready on the table in about 20 minutes."

Pair with Sparkling wine, Rosé or lightly chilled Pinot Noir.
Preparation
- Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°F.
- Whisk eggs and cream with 1/2 tsp salt and pepper together in a small bowl; set aside.
- In a 10- to 12-inch nonstick, oven-safe frying pan or cast iron skillet, sauté potatoes in 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium-heat; sprinkle with remaining salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 6 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
- Add remaining olive oil, spinach, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring for 30 seconds to one minute, until spinach wilts down.
- Sprinkle cheese on top and let it just start to melt. Pour egg mixture into skillet, tilting the pan to make sure eggs settle evenly over vegetables; cook for a minute or two until the eggs at the edges of the pan begin to set.
- Put the pan in the oven and bake until eggs are set, about 8 to 10 minutes. To check, cut a small slit in the center of the frittata; if raw egg runs into the cut, bake for another few minutes. For a browned, crispy top, run the frittata under the broiler for a minute or two at the end of cooking. Cool for 5 minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.
Chef's Note: Add whatever you have on hand; cooked bacon, crumbled sausage, grated zucchini (salt, then squeeze out water), chopped fresh mint, parsley or dill.
