Basic Frittata
This is a basic frittata recipe that is easy and delicious, and no cream cheese used in this. I made this on 22 Apr 2021 and it was very well liked my parents and I. This recipe is a mix of several frittata recipes and I settled on this for ease of preparation, readily available ingredients, and excellent flavor.
Equipment
- Oven
- Baking Pan (9x13 inch)
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, or cooking oil
- 1 bell pepper, color of your choice, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 12 eggs
- 3 tablespoons whipping cream
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups cheese, your choice, shredded, divided
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a non stick pan, when hot, add the onion and bell pepper, and sauté until tender. Remove from heat and set aside to cool just a bit.
- Preheat your oven to 180° C (350° F) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
- To a mixing bowl, crack in the eggs and add the cream. Whisk until the yolks and whites are just mixed together. Stir in the salt, 1 cup of the cheese, and the sautéed bell pepper and onion.
- Pour mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Sprinkle on the remaining 1 cup of cheese. I used a Monterey Jack & Colby blend.
- Back for 25 minutes, the eggs should be puffed up and cooked in appearance, the center will jiggle just a bit when the pan is lightly shaken. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes, then slice into serving portions.
- Serve as a breakfast, lunch, or my favorite; breakfast for dinner. Enjoy!
