Going to get in a Sunday sweat sesh soon, do my grocery shopping, clean up and get ready for a work Banquet tonight! I always love Sundays because they are the perfect amount of productive and lazy. I've got an exciting week ahead - last FULL week of school (how the heck did that happen?) and someone special is coming to visit! Stay tuned...

Chicken Sausage & Ricotta Frittata

Good morning! I've got an eggselent frittata recipe to share. This is perfect to make ahead of time and have for breakfast for a few days or a great brunch recipe! It's easy like this wonderful Saturday morning.

I'll admit I got a little heavy handed with the cheese! Eggs and cheese are a match made in heaven, though, so I can't be blamed. Worth it. This tastes heavenly. P.S. you could make it a little lighter by substituting some of the eggs for egg whites or cutting out some of the cheese. Ingredients:

  • 5 eggs
  • 2 tbsp ricotta cheese + 1 Laughing Cow creamy swiss wedge
  • 4 maple chicken sausage links diced thin (I used Trader Joe's brand)
  • 1/2-1 cup chopped spinach
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese
  • 1-2 tbsp goat cheese crumbles
  • Teaspoon each of kosher salt and pepper

Directions: 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, ricotta cheese and laughing cow cheese
  • Add in chopped spinach, sausage, green onion and seasonings
  • Preheat a small skillet on low-medium heat and spray with cooking spray
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Pour egg mixture in skillet and let cook until the edges are set
  • Sprinkle Mozzarella and goat cheese on top and place in oven
  • Bake until the top of the frittata is set and edges are golden brown (should be about 15 to 20 minutes)
  • Let cool and serve!

What's everyone up to this weekend?
