Chef's Note
For the best texture, don't overbeat the eggs - just whisk until combined. The frittata can be made ahead and reheated, but the salad should be dressed just before serving to maintain freshness.

Ingredients
8 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
3/4 cup jarred roasted red peppers
4 oz goat cheese
1 medium shallot
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
2 cups baby spinach
4 cups mixed salad greens
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/2 medium cucumber
1/2 medium avocado
2 tablespoons pine nuts
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2
Finely dice the shallot and mince the 2 garlic cloves. Drain and chop the 3/4 cup roasted red peppers into 1/2-inch pieces.
- 3
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced shallot and cook for 3 minutes until softened.
- 4
Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 5
Add the 2 cups baby spinach to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes until wilted. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
- 6
In a large bowl, whisk together 8 eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
- 7
Spread the spinach mixture evenly in the skillet. Add the chopped roasted red peppers evenly over the spinach.
- 8
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Crumble 3 oz of the goat cheese over the top, reserving 1 oz for later.
- 9
Cook on the stovetop for 3 minutes until the edges start to set.
- 10
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes until the frittata is set and slightly puffed.
- 11
While the frittata is baking, toast 2 tablespoons pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes until golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Set aside.
- 12
Prepare the salad: wash and dry 4 cups mixed greens. Halve 1 cup cherry tomatoes. Peel and dice 1/2 cucumber. Peel, pit and slice 1/2 avocado.
- 13
Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, and 1 teaspoon honey. Slowly whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil until emulsified. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
- 14
Turn on the broiler. Crumble the remaining 1 oz goat cheese over the frittata and broil for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- 15
Remove the frittata from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- 16
Toss the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado with the vinaigrette.
- 17
Slice the frittata into wedges and serve with the dressed salad. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the salad.
- 18
Serve immediately while the frittata is still warm.
