Pepper and Potato Frittata

I love to cook; I find the process both energizing and relaxing, and I love creating delicious meals for friends and family. But sometimes I want to focus more on the relaxing and less on the effort it takes to get to delicious.

This is why we have frittatas. The frittata is easier to make than an omelet and less fuss to make than a quiche. Once you have all your ingredients ready to go, the oven will do the rest of the work for you. Plus, when your frittata comes out of the oven it will look amazing—all toasty warm in its pan.

Our Pepper and Potato Frittata is all kinds of satisfying, packed with protein, flavor, and color. While our recipe calls for the use of a pan you can take from the stove to the oven (let’s hear it for less cleanup!), if you don’t have a pan that can take the heat, pour your mixture into a pie plate (or two) sprayed lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Your frittata will come out looking wonderful, and it’s easy to serve up hot wedges for breakfast or brunch.

Truly, the shape of the pan isn’t critical here; use what works for you. I’ve used a baking pan intended for making hamburger buns to make mini frittatas. That actually made it convenient to cook them ahead of time to have ready for breakfast for the week.

Whether you love to cook or you’d rather just get things done so you can get to the serious business of eating, you are bound to find the frittata to be a convenient way to make a meal. And if you can add in your own home-grown hot peppers, this is a great way to showcase your pepper harvest. Enjoy!
