Potato Cheddar Frittata is for those fans of eggs with breakfast potatoes in the morning. This easy to make frittata combines the two and adds some cheese to make it even better!
This frittata is baked which is a pretty foolproof method. Everything is added to a pie plate and put into the oven. 30 minutes later you have a meal that will feed eight.
The addition of potatoes and cheese makes this Potato Cheddar Frittata very hearty. It could easily be eaten for any meal of the day.
The best thing about frittatas is their versatility. If you do not have red potatoes, use whatever you have. The same goes for the cheese, dairy and herbs. Use any fresh or dried herbs that you like. Use any kind of milk you have on hand or half and half, cream or sour cream.
