Bacon Veggie Frittata

Daniele-belli's Note:

Egg Fritatta with Bacon, and veggies. Substitute whatever veggies you have in the refrigerator if you'd like. I came up with this recipe while having a serious craving (yes im preggers) for fritatta but did not like any of the ones I came accross in cookbooks that I have. My 3 year loves this, mainly because the veggies are chopped so he has no idea. I served it with ketchup and it was a hit!

• Total Time: 30 mins

• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 6-8

Yield: 8.0 slices

• 7 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon italian seasoning
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 small green pepper, chopped
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
• 2 medium red potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 slices bacon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions:

1. Cook bacon in pan and set aside.
2. Meanwhile in a separte pan cook chopped onion in olive oil.
3. Place potatoes in microwave safe dish and microwave for about 4 minutes.
4. Chop cooled bacon.

9. Once the mixture is about 75 % cooked remove from heat and place in broiler for about 5 minutes.
10. Remove from Broiler and cut into pie slices. Place in broiler again for another 5 minutes or until there is a golden brown crispy top.
11. Remove, reslice and let cool for about 5 minutes.
12. Enjoy!

This was a winner in my house. If the 5 year old likes it, it's definitely a keeper! Very good. Next time I might top with some cheddar cheese.
