Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare the Pan:

  • Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter and sauté the onion and bell pepper (if using) until softened, about 4-5 minutes.

2. Make the Frittata:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in the shredded cheese and cooked bacon (or your choice of protein).

  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sautéed onions and peppers. Let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set.

  • Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let the frittata cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is firm.

  • You can also pop the skillet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to lightly brown the top, if desired.

3. Prepare the Sandwich:

  • While the frittata is cooking, toast the bread slices in a separate pan or toaster until golden brown.

  • Once the frittata is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and carefully slide it onto a cutting board.

  • Cut the frittata into quarters or halves, depending on the size of your bread slices.

4. Assemble the Frittata-Sandwich:

  • Butter the toast slices on one side. Place one slice of toast, butter-side down, on a clean surface.

  • Place a slice or quarter of the frittata onto the toast, then top with the second slice of toast, butter-side up.

  • Optionally, you can add a little more cheese in between for an extra cheesy sandwich!

5. Grill the Sandwich:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat.

  • Carefully place the frittata sandwich in the skillet and grill each side for about 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.

6. Serve:

  • Remove from the skillet and slice the sandwich in half.

  • Serve immediately with a side of fruit, a dollop of sour cream, or a fresh salad!

Optional Add-ins:

  • Herbs: Add some fresh parsley, chives, or basil to the frittata mixture for added flavor.

  • Spinach: Stir in some fresh spinach or arugula to the frittata for a burst of color and nutrition.

  • Avocado: Add slices of avocado to your sandwich for a creamy texture.

This One-Pan Cheesy Breakfast Frittata-Sandwich is a total game-changer—perfect for a delicious breakfast, brunch, or even lunch! Enjoy! 🍳🥪🧀
