Instructions

  • Prep the oven. Turn the oven on to the broil setting. Position a rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Cook the sausage. In a large skillet, melt the butter and add the sausage. Break the sausage with a fork as much as you can. Cook the sausage for a minute, it doesn't have to be completely cooked.
  • Add veggies. Add the chopped onion and mushroom to the skillet. Sauté everything for 5 minutes until the onions soften and the mushrooms begin to brown. Season the mushrooms and sausage with salt and pepper.
  • Add eggs and mozzarella. Pour the beaten eggs over the mushrooms and sausage in the skillet, do not stir. Cook the eggs, for just a minute and sprinkle the mozzarella over the top.
  • Broil the frittata. Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil for a couple minutes, just until the top is nice and golden brown. Make sure to watch it carefully because it can quickly burn.
  • Serve. Let the frittata cool slightly then garnish with parsley and chopped tomatoes if preferred and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  1. Keep an eye on your frittata when it's under the broiler! We don’t want it to burn and go to waste.
  2. Use a variety of different ingredients to customize this recipe to your liking. You can make a variety of frittatas and choose your favorite!
  3. Frittatas are typically served at room temp, so don’t worry about it being served hot. It will taste good no matter what!
  4. If you don’t have a broiler function on your oven, you can bake it at 375°F!
