Here’s a perfectly yummy frittata I created for Smithfield.com today to help use up those Holiday Leftovers! Be sure to pop over and say hi, would ya?
I LOVE egg dishes, it’s as if I could eat them morning, noon and night. There are so many nights when I don’t know what I am making for dinner that we’ll break out the eggs and whip up a delicious meal. Love it!
I decided to go with ham and cheddar for my frittata with some sauteed sweet peppers, onion and parsley on top. When I tell you this is tasty, believe me π
Hope you enjoy!
Pretty basic line up of ingredients for this one π
Saute your onions then add in your sweet peppers.
Stir in your ham and give this a sniff….it’s incredible π
Crack 6 large lovely eggs….
Sprinkle with salt…
….a little pepper
….and a splash of milk π
Give a nice whisk and pour into your hot skillet with the ham and peppers.
Sprinkle your parsley on top and let the eggs cook for a few minutes scraping sides of skillet to get cooking πSprinkle with some shredded cheddar and now it’s ready to go under the broiler.
Make sure your skillet is oven proof before heading to the broiler π
How fun is this? I love how the edges puff. When you remove the skillet from the oven, watch as they fall right back to normal π
If you are like me, then you’ll break out the hot sauce and a nice glass of OJ π
