Tex-Mex Breakfast Frittata
Posted on 10. Jul, 2009 by admin in Featured, Recipes
You can bake the TexMex flavor right into your breakfast with this fantastic dish that will brighten up and morning. Your eggs will never the same again!
½ cup onion, chopped
½ cup green pepper, chopped
½ cup tomato, chopped
½ cup potato, finely diced
4 slices bacon
4 eggs, beaten with a little milk and a dash of hot sauce
1 tsp prepared garlic
Salt & pepper to taste
¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Cook the bacon in a skillet and remove from pan but do not drain the oil. Finely chop bacon once drained and cooled. Add potatoes to the pan and cook until they begin to turn brown. Remove from pan and set aside. Add green (or other – see below) peppers and onion to the pan and cook until just tender, adding butter if needed. Stir in tomatoes, bacon and potatoes, then pour in eggs. Add garlic and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lift veggies to allow eggs underneath. Once eggs begin to solidify, remove from heat, top with cheese and place the skillet in the oven under the broiler but on the middle rack. Broil 2-3 minutes until cheese melts. Serve immediately.
Note: This recipe can be modified to include broccoli, squash, zucchini, etc. For the authentic tex-mex flavor add Poblano (mild) or Jalapeno peppers in to match your heat tolerance.
Yum!
