Frittata’s are pretty awesome and so easy. No flipping, no scrambling, and no waiting until the egg yolk is set in the middle and the whites are done. My favorite type of egg is over easy, but with a frittata all you do is add everything into a bowl, pour in a pan, and let the oven do the rest for you!
Mix in whatever vegetables or protein you like. My favorites are chorizo, ham, bacon, cheese, and broccoli. Potatoes are also great, but will take a longer cooking time. To make this dairy free leave out the milk and add in more eggs.
