SAUTEED SWEET PEPPER AND BACON FRITATTA



Ingredients:

4 tbsps. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

6 Sweet Peppers (Assorted colors)

5 Red Potatoes (Par boiled and cut in to 1/2 in cubes)

6 Eggs

1/4 cup Milk

5 Strips of Bacon (Chopped raw and fried)

1/2 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese

Salt and Pepper

Fresh Chopped Herbs (Optional)




Heat olive oil into a 10-inch oven-proof frying pan over medium high heat. Add sweet peppers and salt (to taste) and sautee until peppers are softened, about 3 minutes. Add potatoes, a little bit more oil and cook an additional 3 minutes. Beat eggs, milk, salt/pepper and herbs together. Pour in eggs and cook until almost set, but still runny on top, about 2 minutes. While cooking, pre-heat oven broiler.
Sprinkle cheese and bacon over eggs and put in oven to broil until cheese is melted and browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from oven and slide frittata onto a serving plate. Cut into wedges. Serves 4 hungry people.



(The guests at the inn that I cooked this for absolutely loved it! Enjoy!)

WELCOME TO MY WORLD!!!

Dear Readers,

Thank you for taking the time to stop by. I'm just a guy with a strong sense of food (and alcohol!) working at a local Inn as a BUTLER and CHEF, who decided to start my own blog. I am hoping there will be something here that everyone can find useful. From easy, gourmet recipes to reviews on my latest restaurant trips...you can find it all! REAL FOODIES ONLY!!! Well, enough small talk, BON APPETIT!
