Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons light olive oil
3/4 cup o'brien frozen potatoes
2 tablespoons chopped red and green bell peppers
1 teaspoon instant minced onion
3 -4 fresh cherry tomatoes
2 -3 frozen precooked breakfast sausage links (such as Brown 'N Serve)
2 -3 free-range eggs
1 -2 teaspoon water
pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, grated
fresh parsley, snipped for garnish (optional)

Steps:

In a medium non-stick skillet, melt the butter and the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the potatoes and peppers evenly in one layer into the pan; cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning once or twice.
Next add the onions, tomatoes and sausages; cook and stir for 5 minutes until sausages are hot. Use a metal spatula to cut up the tomatoes and sausages into bite size pieces.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a little water & add pepper to taste.
Pour eggs all at once over the potato mixture in the pan, but do not stir.
Cook for about two minutes until eggs are set, then off the heat, lift wtih a spatula and let uncooked eggs settle to bottom of pan. Sprinkle with cheese, and let rest a minute or two until the cheese melts. To serve, you may slice and serve the frittata, or stir gently for a frittata-scramble.
Tip: traditionally a frittata is set under the broiler for the last 3-4 minutes, but I chose to skip this step as I like my eggs set but not dry. Be sure to use an oven-proof skillet if you choose to broil your fritatta.
Turn out onto a plate and serve with a fresh snipped parsley garnish.
