Ingredients for Bacon And Potato Frittata

  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup diced potatoes (about 2 medium)
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Frozen Broccoli Florets
  • Cheddar Cheese

How to Make Bacon And Potato Frittata

  1. Cook bacon in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.
  2. Add diced potatoes and onion to the skillet with the bacon grease. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender, about 6-7 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, water, salt, and pepper.
  4. Stir in cooked bacon, broccoli, and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese into the egg mixture.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the potatoes and onions.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the bottom is lightly browned.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over the top.
  8. Cover and let stand for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
