Omelette Frittata Omelette Frittata
I made this delicious Omelette Frittata because both my husband and I absolutely love it. I wanted to make something that didn’t need to much time in the kitchen, because I have also been working on some other small projects that I needed to finish asap. This is a pretty simple recipe with a variety of delicious ingredients that can be put together rather quickly, so if your in a rush try out this Frittata. 🙂When we first moved to NL I was shocked that ovens are quite small……I mean microwave small!! so as a cook this completely blew me away, and I have to admit baking is surely a huge challenge for me. If your oven is large enough then just add the eggs into the mixture and then straight into your oven. If not then do what I do toss the ready made ingredients from the skillet into a oil brushed baking pan and then add the eggs. This is a bit of extra work but at the end it is all worth it. 🙂Who knows maybe someday I will be able to afford a nice size oven, I will keep hoping 🙂

Spinach, Potato & Cheese Frittata Spinach, Potato & Cheese Frittata
First time making a frittata. Although I've made egg bakes many times...basically the same principle only starting the eggs on the stove first. Frittatas are a great way to use up odds and ends of leftover veggies, meats & cheeses.

I had never eaten a frittata, let alone made one, but this wasn't terribly difficult and was an interesting way to have breakfast for dinner with ingredients I already had around the house. NOTE: You can remove the ribs/seeds from half or all of the jalapeno if you don't want the heat.
