    Frittata in cast iron skillet

    My intention most mornings is to start with a hearty breakfast but by the time I get around to eating breakfast, it often ends up being a banana or a protein bar.

    This Easy Frittata Recipe is my way of making breakfast ahead of time. I stored leftover slices individually in the freezer and was able to warm them up in the microwave whenever I want eggs for breakfast!

    How To Make The Easy Frittata Recipe

    Frittata In Skillet

    Step One:

    Whisk together eggs, sour cream, heavy cream, salt, pepper and minced onions.

    Pour the egg mixture into a greased 12-inch cast iron skillet or casserole dish.

    Top sliced peppers, crumbled bacon and shredded cheese. Or any of your favorite veggies or breakfast meats.

    Step Two:

    Bake at 400 degrees for 30-35 minutes until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

    This Easy Frittata Recipe is a great way to start the day. I find that it keeps me full for longer and it is low in carbs without the crust. I can’t wait to try more varieties with different combinations of meats, veggies, and cheeses.
