2. In a large bowl, add the eggs, milk, 175 ml (¾ cup) cheddar cheese, parsley, salt and pepper and mix with a fork. 
3. Add the onion, green bell pepper, green peas and spinach. Combine and pour into the baking dish. 
4. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the frittata is cooked through and the top has browned.

Tip: Use the cooking time to prepare your side dishes. 5. Spread the remaining 125 ml (½ cup) of cheddar cheese over the top. Set the oven to broil and cook for about 5 minutes, keeping a watchful eye, until the cheese is melted.
