Fritatta with Sausage, Mushrooms, Onion and Cheddar


I like to make frittatas as a way to use up what is in my fridge.  After the Thanksgiving holiday, I had veggies, breakfast sausage and eggs leftover.  This is the recipe I came up with to use up the ingredients I had on hand.  The eggs are local from the Garden of Eve, the cheddar is from the Mecox Bay Dairy in Bridgehampton and the breakfast sausage is from Dines Farm.  I used these local ingredients but the ingredients you like or have on hand can be used.  This recipe make a large 10 inch sized pan.  You can cut this recipe in half if you have a smaller pan or want less.  This recipe serves 8.

Ingredients:

12 large eggs
1/2 cup organic milk, any kind you have
salt and pepper to taste
non-stick spray
12 oz breakfast sausage, out of the casing, broken into small pieces
6 mushrooms, cut into pieces
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 cup shredded cheddar

Here's how:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Crack the eggs into a large bowl.  Add the milk, salt and pepper. 

Scramble.  Set aside.

Spray a 10 inch fry pan with non stick spray.

Add the breakfast sausage and cook until just brown.

Add the mushrooms and onions.


Saute for 5 minutes.

Add the eggs and cheese.  Stir until the cheese is incorporated.

Place the pan into the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, until lightly brown on top and cooked.

Remove from the oven and let cool 10 minutes.

Remove the frittata from the pan.

Cut up into slices and serve.
