Spicy Sausage & Vegetable Frittata Recipe: Breakfast-Brunch

Servings: 6

Prep time:15 min

Ingredients:

• 

  8 oz Hot Italian Sausage, removed from casings

• 

  1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced

• 

  1 large red or green bell pepper, diced

• 

  8 large eggs

• 

  1 cup part-skim mozzarella, shredded

• 

  1 tablespoon oil

Step 1:

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking up chunks, 2 to 3 minutes until no longer pink.

Step 2:

Add zucchini and bell pepper, and saute 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

Step 3:

Whisk eggs in a large bowl until well combined. Stir in cheese. Pour over sausage mixture in skillet and stir gently to distribute eggs evenly.

Step 4:

Heat broiler. While broiler heats, cook frittata 4 to 6 minutes until set on bottom and sides (eggs will be runny in center).

Step 5:

Broil 4 to 6 in. from heat source 2 minutes or until firm in center. (If the skillet handle is plastic or wood, wrap it in a double layer of foil to protect it from scorching.)
