Sausage and Onion Frittata - S

    This is a good meal to make for Sunday breakfast. I make it the night before and just bake it in the morning while I'm getting ready for church. No fuss, no muss. No grouchy, hungry people.

    It would also work well for a brunch. Make it the night before and while you're preparing the other food, just bake this and you won't have the mess of making it while preparing your other food!

    I found this recipe on Low Carb Friends and have been meaning to try it for a while. I finally was able to and we really liked it! The original recipe said to bake it in a round glass bowl but I had trouble getting the center to cook right. I now recommend using an 8x8 glass cake pan.

Sausage and Onion

1 lb of sausage

2 Tbsp of minced garlic

10 eggs

1 cup of shredded cheese

2/3 cup of parmesan cheese

2 cans of mushrooms (6.5 oz each)

3 Tbsp of tomato paste

Salt and Pepper

Hot Sauce, optional

 

Sautee onion and garlic with butter on low/medium heat.

Meanwhile, brown sausage. When almost cooked, add

mushrooms, paste, salt and pepper, and hot sauce.

Sautee 5-10 more minutes.

Mix onions with meat, pat down into an 8x8 baking dish and spread evenly.

Combine eggs and cheeses, pour over top of meat.

Poke "holes" in meat to get a little egg down there.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.

Serve with a dollop of sour cream, if desired

 

 

To make hotter, use spicy sausage
