This is a great recipe for feeding a bunch of hungry visitors in the morning. I do make some changes however. I omit the potatoes & substitute a hashbrown crust on the bottom. I also add broccoli & mushrooms & any other veggies on hand. I did need to cook this for almost an hour & to finish it off I broiled it for a couple of minutes but I also used more eggs. Go crazy & experiment with additional ingredients! Add some dill weed or fresh rosemary for added flavor.
Great one course meal! Few changes:Mix everything in skillet but when to add potatoes I removed the mixture saute the baked potato slices..then everything on top easier to remove from skillet also used cheery tomatoes sliced in half). Please do brown for a few minutes: makes a great presentation!... with a saled served it at dinner! Received raves!!!
This was my first frittata and it was so pretty and easy to make even the kids could do it! Next time I am putting extra cheese on because I like it to be artery clogging mmmn. Oh! Just a tip: I had to cook it a bit longer (30 minutes) maybe my oven is a bit dodgy? Watch the middle of the pie to see if it's set.
We don't have any young KIDS so I m writing this reveiw as a senior citizen who has a cl. problem!!!
Excellent! Great basic recipe suitable for wide substitution and variation. I didn't have ham so I used cooked bacon; I didn't have red pepper so I used green. I used a big iron skillet and the consistency was wonderful and the pie was easy to cut. I used 7 eggs and cooked it for 25 minutes. It was perfect!
Watching carbs so substituted zucchini for the potato and didn't feel deprived. This is a pretty basic omelet - nothing unusual here - but the sliced tomato which I placed on the omelet just before baking rather than mixing it in really dressed this up. Lots of red and green going on so this would be a nice choice for a festive Chriistmas breakfast. Just salt and pepper is fine but this would benefit from some seasoning to boost the flavor - I added fresh minced garlic and fresh chives. I made a half recipe and baked it in a shallow ceramic baker about 30 minutes.
This is the BEST And Thank you for all your Suggestions Here are mine I have a very picky Family that does not Like Onions and the Peppers OR the mushroom I know it is Silly! So What I did I Cut the potatoes Like I was making Mash Potatoes it's Alot faster and I justed Mixed everthing in a big bowl I used Minced Onions To still have the taste and I added Season Salt I Love it on potatoes and I put in bacon instead of ham about 1 lbs I know it is alot but thats what they like and added alot more Cheese bout 2 cups I thought it was to much but the Husband LOVE it! And I dont have a Cast Iorn Pan So I used A pie pan and I had to bake or 45 min but I dont know if that is because I live in High Alitude Thank you for this recipe it will be a family favorte For ever!
I suspect there are a few other at-home chefs in the same boat as me: I don't own a cast iron skillet! I know - shame on me! I followed the recipe exactly aside from adding a bit of garlic. Once I got to the point that everything was to go into the skillet and then into the oven I put the veggie/potato/ham mix into a quiche dish poured the eggs over that sprinkled the cheese and then stuck the whole thing in the oven at 375 for about 45 minutes. You'll know it's set if a knife inserted near the center comes out clean!
This was a great meal for dinner but I baked it in a pie shell to make it like a quiche. It is definitely a "keeper" recipe.
This is a pretty good recipe with lots of room to experiment with your own ingredients. Will add more cheese next time.
