Ingredients
  

Egg Mixture
  • 6 large eggs Provide protein and richness; use fresh eggs for the best results.
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy); substitute with almond or soy milk for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Enhances overall flavor; adjust based on dietary needs.
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper Adds subtle heat; freshly ground is preferred for better flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano Imparts earthy tones; substitute with thyme or Italian seasoning for variation.
Vegetables and Bread
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped; can be replaced with kale for a heartier option.
  • 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese Adds a tangy flavor; swap for cheddar or cottage cheese as alternatives.
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned); use sundried tomatoes for a richer taste.

  • 1 cup cubed bread (day-old works well); use gluten-free bread for a gluten-free option.
