\"fritatta\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’ve made omelets, eggs, and quiches before, but this was my first frittata. \u00a0I used what I had on hand: bacon and potatoes. \u00a0Next time I’ll try to add some bell pepper and other ingredients. \u00a0It was pretty simple, you just have to make sure you do not burn your potatoes on the bottom layer. \u00a0I omitted the green onion. \u00a0I used fresh basil from the garden. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 \u00a0Enjoy!<\/strong><\/p>\n
