Ingredients

  • 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes (about 8 cherry tomatoes), halved
  • 1 link cheddar sausage, halved lengthwise and cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1 small zucchini, halved lengthwise and chopped
  • olive oil
  • salt & pepper
  • 8 fresh farm eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream or full-fat milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup kale, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400℉. Place the halved cherry tomatoes, chopped sausage and chopped zucchini in a 9x9 baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and toss all the ingredients well. Use your hands to make sure the olive oil also coats the sides of the baking dish. Season well with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce heat to 350℉.
  • In a large batter bowl with a spout, whisk eggs with the cream or milk and season with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.

  • Pour the egg mixture over the sausage/vegetable mixture. Top with a handful of chopped kale and use a fork to lightly push the kale down into the egg so it is moistened.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 22-28 minutes. The frittata is done when the mixture doesn't jiggle at all when you shimmy the dish and a fork inserted in the middle comes out clean. Don't over bake. Remove from oven and wait 5 minutes before slicing. Serve and enjoy!

  • Freezing Instructions: Once the frittata has cooled to room temperature, cut into 9 servings. Wrap individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper and then stack the individually wrapped portions in a freezer safe bag or container. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating. Microwave for 30-45 seconds to reheat.
