In a bowl, crack open 3 medium eggs and add salt and pepper to taste, then whisk until combined.

Add 1/4 cup of half and half into the egg mixture and whisk again.

Once the butter has melted, add 2 tablespoons of chopped mushrooms to the pan and let them fry until soft.

Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of chopped ham into the pan.

Add a few sprigs of fresh rosemary into the egg mixture and mix well.

Add 1 cup of chopped fresh spinach into the egg mixture and combine.

Pour the egg mixture into the pan, ensuring it surrounds the ingredients evenly.

Add 2 heaping tablespoons of grated Swiss cheese on top of the egg mixture in the pan.

Remove from the broiler and let cool for a few minutes, being careful as it can burn quickly.

Place a large plate on top of the frying pan and flip the frittata onto the plate.

Cut the frittata into pieces and serve.
