Bacon and Mushroom Frittata
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 6 slices of bacon, chopped
- 1 cup of sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 cup of chopped onion
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler in your oven.
- In a 10-inch non-stick, oven-safe skillet, cook 6 slices of chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon drippings in the skillet.
- Add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms and 1/2 cup of chopped onion to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are golden brown and the onions are softened.
- In a bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs, 1/4 cup of milk, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms and onions.
- Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, lifting the edges of the frittata with a spatula to let the uncooked egg flow underneath. Continue cooking until the eggs are almost set but still slightly runny on top.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and the cooked bacon over the top of the frittata. Place the skillet under the broiler and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the top is set and golden brown.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley over the frittata.
- Slice the frittata into wedges and serve hot. Enjoy!
