• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 leeks, white and light green parts only, diced
• 1 5-ounce bag baby spinach, chopped
• 1/2 cup diced ham

3. Heat oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat.

5. Add spinach and ham; cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute.
6. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook, lifting the edges of the frittata so uncooked egg can flow underneath, until the bottom is light golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
