Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until slightly softened 2 minutes.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, then add in the meat mixture. Spread mixture into an even layer in the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake until set, about 25 minutes.
