Total Time: 15 mins
Preparation Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Ingredients
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 1 bell pepper, fine diced (i use 1/2 red bp and 1/2 green bp for color)
- 1 onion, fine diced
- 4 -5 pieces bacon, fried and crumbled thickly
- 2 -3 pieces flat sausage, fried and crumbled
- 1/4 cup cold milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic, fine diced
- cheddar and colby cheese, shredded
- salt and pepper
Recipe
- 1 turn on oven to broil.
- 2 if not already done, fry bacon and sausage in pan and drain.
- 3 saute onion and peppers in a little of the bacon grease.
- 4 use the same non-stick (oven-safe) 9" skillet for everything.
- 5 salt and pepper this at the first, then halfway through, add garlic and adjust seasoning.
- 6 sauté for about 4 minutes, flipping or stirring occasionally.
- 7 while this is cooking and the bacon and sausage are resting.
- 8 beat the 6 eggs together with the milk, cayenne and 1/4 t.
- 9 salt, add fresh ground pepper.
- 10 when onions and peppers are colored and done to your liking, mix sausage and bacon (crumbled) back into pan.
- 11 pour the egg mixture over all of this and drag a rubber or wooden spatula across bottom of pan, letting the egg fill in behind spatula (this is important to produce fluffy eggs).
- 12 once the egg stops filling in easily, shake pan around and get everything even.
- 13 add about 1/2 cup shredded cheese mixture onto top and let cook over medium heat for a few minutes (about 3-4 minutes).
- 14 take off burner and add immediately to oven under broiler.
- 15 make sure rack is in the middle of the oven.
- 16 let cook until cheese is not only melted, but colored very well, some browning will occur, this is just tasty goodness.
- 17 pull from oven, shake pan around a bit to loosen eggs from non-stick surface.
- 18 if a little help is needed, push sides of fritata with a wooden spatula or spoon to help loosen.
- 19 slide off pan onto cutting board or plate and cut in quarters like a pizza.
- 20 plate up with some oregano or parsley sprinkled on top.
- 21 enjoy.
- 22 this is very easily altered to your specific tastes by changing or adding ingredients.
- 23 for instance: use parmesan and mozzerella, add pepperoni and canadian bacon in place of sausage and bacon.
- 24 add oregano and some mushrooms to make a rustic italian fritata.
- 25 easy modification.
- 26 just be careful, adding too much cheese on top will result in the middle of the eggs not being fully cooked.
