<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nTired of the same old breakfast options? Broaden your family’s horizons with the breakfast frittata. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is a quick breakfast to throw together that the whole family will enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WHAT IS A FRITTATA?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes compared to a quiche, omelet, or egg casserole, a frittata begins cooking on the stove and then is finished baking in the oven. Using an oven safe skillet like this cast iron<\/a> is great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Believe it or not, they actually are very easy to make!<\/p>\n\n\n\n An omelet is cooked over the stove, filled with toppings, and then flipped to form a half circle. A quiche is an egg casserole that is baked in a pie shell. An egg casserole is baked in the oven without a crust. They are all similar, but the cooking method sets them apart.<\/p>\n\n\n EGGS<\/b>– A basic item to always have on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MILK<\/b>– You can use milk of your choice. I like to use cow’s milk while cooking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MEAT<\/b>– Whatever meat you have on hand you can use here. Some of our favorites are sausage, bacon, ham or a meat lovers combo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n VEGETABLES<\/b>– Use what you have on hand. Fresh or frozen spinach, peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n POTATO<\/b>– Our family is partial to the sweet potato and sausage combo. You can use any type of potato though, or omit completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CHEESE<\/b>– You really can’t go wrong with your choice of cheese. Pepperjack, swiss, cheddar, gruyere, really any shredded cheese you have on hand would be a great compliment to these flavors. Of, you can always omit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SPICES<\/b>– Adjust these if you want, but we use ground mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika in our breakfast frittatas and have been pleased.<\/p>\n\n\n 1. If you are using sausage in your frittata, fry up your meat in an oven safe skillet<\/a> and drain. If not, skip to step 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Saute any veggies and potatoes that are pretty firm for a few minutes to soften them up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Add meat, spices, and any other veggies into skillet. Mix well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. In a separate bowl, crack open the eggs. Add the milk and whisk together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Pour into the hot skillet and help the egg mixture get into all parts of the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. Top with cheese and bake for 10-15 minutes.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/living-practically.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/IMG_7456-592x1024.jpeg\")
