Easy Customizable Sausage and Vegetable Frittatas Breakfast

Vegetable Frittatas are a great way to get your vegetables in for breakfast while using up whatever leftovers you have in your refrigerator.

Frittatas, similar to gumbo and ratatouille, are one of those recipes that are great for using up a bunch of leftovers that you may have in the refrigerator. That’s precisely how we came up with this recipe. Justin wanted something different for breakfast and decided to experiment.

We later looked it up and realized he basically made frittatas, even though we had never heard of them before. There were a lot of leftover vegetables in the refrigerator as well as some sausage. So he just started throwing things together.

That’s one of the best parts of this breakfast. It is entirely customizable to your tastes and preferences, and what ingredients you have on hand! For example, we had some sausage left over from making sausage biscuits and gravy. We also had sliced mushrooms, onion, grape tomatoes, and spinach. If you don’t want or like any of that, you can substitute other ingredients. Justin said next time, he will probably make it with green pepper, but it was still good without.

We used sausage in these since we had it leftover from before. But, you could also fry up some ham or bacon as well. Again, whatever you like, whatever you have on hand, whatever you need to use before it goes bad, can all go into this recipe.

Sausage and Vegetable Frittatas Step by Step

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup sausage (cooked)
• 1/4 cup mushrooms (sliced)
• 1/4 cup onion (chopped)
• 1/4 cup tomato (chopped)
• 3 eggs
• 1 tbsp milk
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)

Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with milk and salt and pepper

In a medium frying pan, saute the vegetables in olive oil and add the sausage

Spread the vegetables and sausage out in the frying pan so they create one layer covering as much of the pan as possible

Pour egg mixture over the vegetables, trying to distribute evenly so there aren’t any gaps

Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the egg is firm on the bottom and starting to brown

Carefully flip the egg over to cook the other side and top with cheese so the cheese melts while the bottom is cooking

Serve warm sliced like a pizza
