This Sausage, Potato, Roasted pepper, Kale and cheese Frittata is a family friendly dish. There’s nothing better than a good breakfast to start the busy day you have ahead of you. It all comes together in an oven safe skillet, preferably a cast iron one if you have. This frittata is hearty, full of protein and incredibly flavorful.
A Frittata is essentially an egg based dish very similar to a crust less quiche that is usually served for breakfast but can really be served up for breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are very easy and versatile! You can pretty much use whatever you have in your refrigerator or pantry. You’ll start cooking on the stovetop browning up your sausage, onion and potato in a mixture of olive oil and butter. Then you will add in your eggs, roasted red peppers, kale and cheese. After you have placed all of your ingredients in the skillet, just place it in the oven and cook until bubbly, golden and your eggs are cooked through.
To save time in the morning this recipe can be made the night before just cut a slice and heat it up in the morning, because if your morning gets as crazy as mine do with trying to get ready, getting kids up for school and out the door a good hardy breakfast usually turns into a back thought.
Note: Change it up a little you can add any ingredients you like for example: mushrooms, spinach, olives and all different types of cheeses. Have fun with it and Enjoy!!
