Breakfast Frittata

Mowgli requested some easy breakfast items, so I'll be posting a few over the next couple of days.

Frittata - serves 4-6

butter or cooking spray
1 cup chopped broccoli (optional)
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped pepper
1 cup diced cooked meat (sausage, bacon, ham)
6 eggs
2 Tablespoons milk
4 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese


You must use a frying pan that can go into the oven for this! No plastic handles allowed.
Preheat broiler.
Heat frying pan on stove over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the butter or cooking spray. If using the broccoli, add that first and cook for about 4 minutes. Add the onion and pepper and cook until onions are transparent. Add the cooked meat and cook for another 2 minutes or so until the meat is heated through.
In a bowl, scramble the eggs with the milk and Parmesan cheese. Pour over the vegetable/meat mix. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the bottom is set up. Transfer the pan to the broiler. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes or until well set. Watch carefully, as it can burn easily.
You can cut the calories by using cooking spray rather than butter, turkey sausage/bacon/ham, and swapping skim milk for whole. Serve with a green salad or fruit salad for a nice brunch.
