Steps

1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Slice the mini peppers into rings and add to the hot pan, cooking until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.
3. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 minutes.
4. Whisk the 8 eggs together with salt and pepper, then pour over the peppers and spinach.
5. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top and let the skillet sit undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the bottom to set.
6. Once the edges begin to set but the center still looks wet, place the skillet under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes until the top is golden and set.
7. Slide the frittata onto a cutting board, cut into wedges, and serve with toasted bread.
