Farmer’s Frittata
This is a fast and easy breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner. Frittatas are easy, cheap, and delicious. You can make them with any leftovers you have on hand. This one has country sausage, green peppers, onions, pepper jack cheese, and fresh tomatoes. I love to make these on the weekends, or as a quick weekday dinner. Frittatas are Italian open-faced omelets that you start on the stove, and finish under the broiler. They puff when they are broiled, making them a wonderfully light. I like to make these better than omelets, because they are so much easier. You can cook one large one for the whole family, and do not have to take special orders for different omelets.
