Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 7 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk I use at least 1%
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and sliced thin
  • 1 medium size potato, peeled and sliced thin
  • 1/4 cup flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, divided
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions
 

Pre-heat oven to 350°F

  • Heat a 10-inch cast iron or non-stick skillet to medium high. Add olive oil, butter, onion, carrots and potatoes. Toss to coat and sprinkle with seasoned salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Sauté until lightly browned and tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk eggs and milk in medium bowl until light and fluffy. Add in salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, parsley and cheese. Combine well.
  • Spread potato mixture evenly on the bottom of the pan and pour egg mixture over the top. Give it a little shake so the eggs settle. Immediately pop in oven and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the top is set. Sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese and fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Add meat- Cook meat then add the veggies. If using sausage or bacon you wont need to add the oil and butter. 
  1. Breakfast sausage (about 1 cup)
  2. Pork or turkey bacon (6 slices)
  3. Cubed Ham (about 1 cup)
Veggies- Add whatever veggies you like, just make sure to adjust your cooking time.
Cheese- Use whatever cheese you have on hand. Sharp cheddar, gruyere, parmesan, and pepper jack are my favorite.
Fresh herbs- Basil, chives, thyme and rosemary are all great herbs to add in a frittata. A little goes a long way. 
Milk- If you want a decadent frittata that's richer in flavor use half & half or whole milk. Otherwise, 1% and 2% are all good!
