Ingredients for Bacon Tomato Frittata

  • 6 slices bacon
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Dijon Mustard
  • Tomatoes
  • Garlic Clove
  • Cheddar Cheese

How to Make Bacon Tomato Frittata

  1. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.
  2. Crumble the cooked bacon into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and Dijon mustard until well blended.
  4. Heat the reserved bacon grease in the skillet over low heat. Add the minced garlic and diced tomato; cook for 2 minutes, or until the tomato is slightly softened. Stir in the crumbled bacon.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook over low heat for 4 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
  6. Using a spatula, gently push the cooked edges towards the center, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Cover the skillet.
  7. Continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes, or until the top is set but the center is still slightly moist.
  8. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese).
  9. Cover the skillet and remove from heat. Let stand for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt completely.
  10. Cut into wedges and serve immediately. 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!
