You say fri-tita, I say frit-tata
Spinach, Sausage and Red Pepper Frittata
* Adapted from thecookingfiend.blogspot.com
Ingredients:
6 eggs
2 tablespoons of 2% milk
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1 tablespoon of butter
1 tablespoon of olive oil
2 chicken sausages, sliced (or whatever meat you would like. I used andouille sausage)
1/2 a cup of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
3/4 of a cup of red pepper chopped
3 ounces of Gruyere cheese, cubed small
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat together eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Turn the oven on to broil. In a 9-10 inch non-stick, oven safe skillet, heat oil and butter over medium-high heat. Coat the skillet well with the oil/butter mixture. Add the sausage, spinach and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until tender, crisp and heated through. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add egg mixture. Top with cheese. Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the eggs have set but the top is still runny.
3. Carefully move the skillet from the stove top to the oven and broil for about 4 minutes, or until the top is browned and no longer runny. Remove from the oven - be careful of the hot handle!! - and let stand for 2 minutes. Loosen the frittata from the pan and transfer to a serving plate.
