Instructions
-
Prepare the Bacon: Begin by cooking the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it is crispy and browned to perfection. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings in the skillet and discard the rest. When the bacon is cool enough to handle, break it into bite-sized pieces and set it aside.
-
-
Mix the Egg Mixture: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the eggs, milk, and Dijon mustard. Whisk the mixture together until it is well blended and slightly frothy.
-
Cook the Tomatoes and Garlic: With the reserved bacon drippings still in the skillet, reduce the heat to low. Add the diced tomato and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomato is warmed through and the garlic is fragrant.
-
Combine Ingredients: Stir the cooked bacon pieces into the tomato and garlic mixture in the skillet. Ensure everything is evenly distributed.
-
Cook the Frittata: Pour the egg mixture over the bacon and tomato mixture in the skillet. Cook over low heat for about 4 minutes. As the edges of the frittata begin to set, gently run a spatula around the edge of the skillet and lift the egg mixture slightly to allow any uncooked egg to flow to the bottom. Cover the skillet with a lid and continue to cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes, or until the top is set but still moist.
-
Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the frittata. Cover the skillet tightly and remove it from the heat. Let it stand for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and become gooey.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Cut the frittata into wedges and serve warm. It pairs beautifully with a side of fresh fruit or a simple green salad for a well-rounded breakfast.
This Bacon Tomato Frittata not only satisfies with its delightful blend of flavors but also offers a nutritious start to your day. Each bite is a perfect balance of savory bacon, sweet tomatoes, and creamy cheese. Whether you’re hosting a brunch or enjoying a cozy breakfast with loved ones, this frittata is sure to impress.
