Category: Breakfast Recipes

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/3 cup sweet onion, sautéed
I package Jones Canadian bacon, sliced into julienne strips, 1/4-inch thick pieces
6 large eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream or half and half
I cup fresh spinach, wilted
1/2 cup roasted red bell pepper strips (well drained if bottled)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Preparation:

Pour olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sweet onions; cook 1 minute. Add Canadian bacon; cook 3 minutes or until onions are tender, stirring frequently.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat eggs with heavy cream or half and half. Add spinach, roasted pepper, salt and pepper; mix well. Stir mixture into cooked Canadian bacon mixture in skillet, mixing well. Cook 8 minutes or until bottom of frittata is golden brown, lifting edges with a spatula to allow uncooked eggs to flow to bottom of frittata.

Use a large spatula to loosen frittata from edges and bottom of skillet. Carefully slide frittata onto a plate; use another plate to flip frittata over and slide back into skillet, cooked side up. Sprinkle cheese over top of frittata; reduce heat to medium-low and cook 5 minutes longer or until center is set and cheese has melted. Cut into wedges.
