Easy & Delicious Eggs Florentine Bake Recipe
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work great!)
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
- Add the chopped spinach, cheese, and onions to the egg mixture, mixing gently until everything is distributed.
- Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares and serving. Enjoy!
Practical & Valuable Tips
- For a creamier texture, let the dish sit for a few minutes before serving; it helps redistribute the moisture.
- This dish is a great make-ahead option! Prepare it the night before and just pop it in the oven in the morning.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days—just reheat in the microwave or a warm oven for a quick breakfast!
