I’m not a huge egg fan. I like eggs IN things (topping a burger, in cakes, etc.) and I don’t mind a platter of bacon and sunny-side eggs with toast. Omelets and scrambled eggs are probably my least favourite style of eggs. But I was craving a mix of sundried tomatoes, feta and spinach and this frittata came out wonderfully. Pouring into an already hot pan gave it a nice crisp up, too.
