We're no longer drowning in eggs, but we still have a fair few, so this seemed like a good option for this morning's breakfast. I just used store-bought roasted bell peppers, but feel free to roast your own fresh if you'd like to go the extra mile. I also used turkey sausage and omitted the oil because I'm still trying to watch my weight, but go ahead and use a little oil and pork or beef sausage if you're not calorically constrained. Likewise, I used a low-fat mozzarella cheese, but go ahead and use whichever cheese you like best.
Roasted Bell Pepper and Sausage Frittata
Slightly adapted from The Good Egg by Marie Simmons
Ingredients
- up to 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 225g turkey sausage, casings removed
- 2 roasted red bell peppers, peeled and cut into strips
- 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 large eggs
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/2 tsp. coarse sea salt
- 1/8 tsp. black peppercorns, ground
- 1/2 c. grated low-fat mozzarella
Directions
- Heat the oil (if using) over medium heat.
- Add the sausage and cook, breaking up with a spatula or wooden spoon, until browned (~5 minutes).
- Add the bell peppers and garlic and cook for another minute or two.
- Beat the eggs with the parsely, salt, and pepper and pour the egg mixture into the pan.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 4-5 minutes.
- Slide a spatula under the edge of the eggs and lift to allow raw egg to flow under. Repeat at several other points around the edge of the pan.
- Sprinkle with cheese, cover, and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
- Once mostly set, place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and set the top.
- Cut into wedges and serve.
