Sausage & Veggie Frittata


A yummy (and healthy) breakfast option that can be tailored to your favorite foods.  Fritattas can be made with anything, and they're especially good to make with leftovers from the night before.  I used coconut oil in lieu of butter to create and non sticky surface.  Coconut oil is super healthy and is used by many people that follow the Paleo diet.

Serves: 3-5
Ingredients:
  •  6 eggs, beaten
  • 4 links of chicken & apple sausage, diced
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp cayenne
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • salt & pepper to taste


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Heat a skillet on medium-high, and add the coconut oil.  Once oil is heated, add the sausage and cook for about 8 minutes.  Add remaining veggies and cook for 2 minutes.  Add the beaten eggs and start stir the mixture in the skillet using a spatula.   Once the mixture starts to firm, put the skillet in the oven (make sure it's an oven-safe skillet!) and cook for about 5-10 minutes until the top of the mixture has firmed up.



Add a bit of feta or parmesan on top and then slice and serve.

Happy cooking!
