Easy Frittata Recipe
Frittatas are a perfect way to use up veggies that may be past their peak freshness, small chunks of random cheesees in your fridge drawer, or leftover cooked meat. I like to make a frittata for dinner the day before leaving for a trip or for breakfast before hitting the farmer's market to restock. It's easy, versatile, and a family favorite.

Ingredients
- 8-10 eggs
- 2 tbsp milk or cream
- ¼ cup shredded cheese, any kind
- 1-2 cups cooked greens or veggie mixture
- ½-1 cup cooked sausage, ham, bacon (or leave out and use more veggies)
- salt and pepper to taste
- ½ tsp magic mushroom seasoning (optional)
- few dashes hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese (or reserve 2 tbsp of shredded cheese for top)
Instructions
- In a nonstick, oven-safe pan, cook veggies in a little olive oil or butter. Alternatively, if you have leftover cooked veggies, simply add those to the pan. Add cooked meat, if using.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over top.
- In medium bowl, whisk eggs, cream, seasoning and hot sauce.
- Pour egg mixture evenly over the veggie, meat, cheese. Finish with grated cheese, if using or additional shredded cheese for a nice crust.
- Bake at 350° until golden and slightly puffy, about 20 minutes.
- Let sit a few minutes, then slice in wedges and enjoy! We like ours with sliced avocado and hot sauce or salsa.
