The title of this recipe is a mouthful, yet a delicious one!

Speaking of delicious, I have an incredible sheet pan breakfast coming at you this morning! Filled with goodies like fresh cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, ricotta and pasta. Yes! Pasta! It adds some delicious toothy texture to a Frittata -which I LOVE- while also giving the Frittata some substantiality.

Plus it’s pasta. Who doesn’t love pasta? Especially with breakfast!

And I know what you’re thinking. This Frittata has to stick to the pan, right? Wrong. Getting the pan hot in the oven and then spraying it with olive oil spray really does the trick. Sure maybe a little egg is left in spots, but it’s surprisingly easy to slice and serve.

To Make This Sheet Pan Spinach Tomato Ricotta Pasta Frittata You Will Need:

  • olive oil sprayOr use avocado oil spay.
  • shallot – Lends subtle onion flavor.
  • spinachAdds vitamins and nutrients and a pop of green.
  • cherry tomatoesOr use grape tomatoes.
  • garlicAdds distinct punchy flavor.
  • kosher salt – Enhances the flavors in this recipe.
  • freshly ground black pepperLends distinct bite and flavor.
  • eggsI like to use Vital Farms eggs (not sponsored) for their golden yolk and rich flavor.
  • parmesan cheeseUse freshly grated for best flavor.
  • leftover cooked (and cooled) pastaLends delicious texture to the frittata.
  • ricotta cheeseUse whole milk or part skim.
  • fresh basilAdds delicious herbaceous freshness and a pop of color. (for serving)
  • red pepper flakesLends delicious heat, but is optional. (for serving)

Place a small quarter sheet pan on the middle rack of your oven and preheat to 425℉ (or 220℃).

Note: Make sure you are using a quarter sheet pan and not a larger pan.

Spray a nonstick skillet with olive oil and heat on medium-low. Sauté the diced shallots with a small pinch of kosher salt for 4 to 6 minutes or until softened.

Next add in 4 cups or large handfuls of baby spinach, 1 heaping cup of tomato halves, a clove of finely minced garlic and another small pinch of kosher salt with a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper.

Stir and cook until the tomatoes burst and the spinach has wilted but still has a bit of texture to it. Remove the pan off of the heat and let cool.

Meanwhile, crack 4 eggs into a bowl along with 4 egg whites and add 1/4 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese.

Whisk until combined.

Once the oven (and pan) have preheated, use oven mist to remove the pan and immediately spray with olive oil. Scatter the spinach and tomato mixture on the bottom along with the cold pasta.

Pour the parmesan eggs over top.

Lastly, drop spoonfuls of ricotta (1/2 cup total) on top and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese before sliding the pan back into the oven to bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the eggs are set.
