In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until light yellow.
Pour egg mixture over the spinach mixture in the skillet. Do not

Sprinkle mozzarella over top of frittata.
Bake in the oven until the eggs are set in the center, the cheese is
melted and the top is light brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into
wedges and serve with prepared salsa.
