CORN AND BACON FRITTATA
Ingredients
- 2 slices bacon, julienned
- 1/2 cup sliced green onions
- 8 large eggs
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp hot pepper sauce
- 1/4 cup milk (2%)
- 1 can (10 oz/284 mL) cream-style corn
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
- Cook bacon in an ovenproof non-stick frypan over medium heat until crisp.
- Add green onions and sauté for 1 minute. Drain off excess fat.
- Whisk together eggs, salt and hot pepper sauce in a bowl. Whisk in milk until blended. Stir in corn.
- Preheat oven on broil. Meanwhile, pour egg mixture over bacon mixture. Reduce heat to low and cook, lifting edges of frittata occasionally with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg mixture to run underneath.
- Cook until frittata is barely set in centre.
- Remove from heat; sprinkle with cheese. Broil for 4 - 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and frittata is set. Cut into wedges. Serve immediately.
