(7)

This frittata is ready in less than 20 minutes. Take a little bit of leftover breakfast sausage, a few chopped veggies, some shredded cheese, and some eggs, and create a hot breakfast! Make it a meal with some whole wheat toast and juice, or just wrap it up in a napkin and eat as you run! If there is any left, it reheats well.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 2 teaspoons butter (Optional)

  • cup diced bell pepper

  • cup chopped onion

  • ½ cup breakfast sausage crumbles

  • ½ cup shredded Colby Jack cheese

  • 6 eggs

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • ½ teaspoon hot pepper sauce (Optional)

  • ¼ cup salsa, or more to taste (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat a 5.8-quart or larger air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.

  2. Spray cooking spray on the bottom and sides of a small metal container, designed to be an inner pot, about 6 inches round and 4 inches high.

  3. Add butter for flavor, insert inner pot into the air fryer, and melt butter for 45 seconds. Add bell pepper and onion and fry for 2 minutes.

  4. Carefully remove the inner pot and stir in sausage crumbles. Sprinkle with Colby Jack cheese and set aside.

  5. Crack eggs into a bowl and stir until yolks and whites are well combined. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce; stir to combine. Pour egg mixture over the other ingredients in the inner pot and lightly mix everything together.

  6. Return inner pot to the basket of the air fryer and cook until the top of the frittata is lightly brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 12 minutes. Continue air frying in 30-second intervals until frittata has set. Serve warm or at room temperature with salsa.

Cook's Note:

You can also serve the frittata with pico de gallo instead of salsa.
