BONNIE'S BACON SPINACH FRITTATA image

I created this recipe for breakfast one morning. It may be a simple recipe, but it is not simple in taste. It is made from most ingredients that you have in your refrigerator. This is a high protein dish, perfect for Atkins followers. Enjoy! Recipe and photos are my own.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs slightly beaten
1/2 white onion, small dice
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons of cream
3/4 cup raw spinach leaves
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 teaspoon chipotle pepper
2 slices of cooked crisp bacon, crumbled
season to taste at the table with salt and pepper if desired

Steps:

  • 1. Assemble all the ingredients, fry the bacon crisp, cool and crumble. Thin slice the sharp cheese and dice the onion. Saute the onion in a medium non stick skillet in one tablespoon of olive oil over medium low heat until golden brown.
  • 2. Add the cream to the onions. Stir for a minute or two until the mixture thickens. This carmelizing will make the onions taste very sweet and give the frittata a nice flavor.
  • 3. Add the beaten eggs and chipotle pepper to the mixture.
  • 4. Add the spinach leaves.
  • 5. Add the cheese slices.
  • 6. Turn the heat to low and let the frittata cook until it sets. Add a glass lid after one minute. The frittata is done when the edges turn brown and the mixture is solid.
  • 7. Add the bacon, and serve immediately. Here is how it looks! Enjoy!
