Eggs can be underrated I mean you can do SO much with them in just about any flavor combo!

I have plenty of frittata recipes on this blog but what if you're not feeding a crowd or meal prepping?  What if you just want a single serving frittata for one? With ALL your favorite flavors?  Take this recipe and run with it! Add in whatever your favorite flavors are or whatever you have in your fridge and you can have a super easy frittata for one ready in no time!!  See how I like to make MINE below!

lil carb Frittata for One
2 eggs
1 Tbsp half and half
1/2 Tbsp Butter
1/8 cup bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup tomato, chopped
2 Tbsp onion, chopped
1 Tbsp pickled jalapeño, chopped
.75 ounces cheese (I used 1 slice of American Cheese)
1 Tbsp fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or basil (optional)
Salt & Pepper to taste


 To start off whisk together the eggs and half & half with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
Whisk together until it is combined and then whisk another 10 seconds.
Preheat your broiler to high.
Next, heat the butter in an 8 inch, nonstick skillet (this is key) over medium to medium high heat.
Once the butter is melted add in the chopped onion and jalapeño and stir for about 30 seconds. Then add in the bell pepper and stir for about 30 seconds. Next add in the tomato and stir.
Cook the veggies until they develop brown color, about 3-4 minutes.
Then arrange the veggies in a single layer and pour in the eggs.
Run a spatula around the edge of the skillet to loosen the egg mixture from the sides.
Tilt the skillet around to move the uncooked egg mixture and continue to run the spatula around the edge. Do this until the frittata is mostly set but not completely cooked yet- about 2 minutes.
Top with your desired cheese and pop under the broiler for 1 minute- 1 minute 30 seconds- depending on your oven. Just watch carefully. In my video I kept mine in for 1 minute 20 seconds.
Garnish with chopped herbs and ENJOY!
