A baked vegetable and sausage frittata is such a wonderful one pan meal. Obviously, it is amazing as a breakfast dish, but it works well for other meals too such as brunch or dinner.

A few years back, my mom gave me a pan for Christmas that I fell in love with. After we opened up our gifts that morning, my mom and I decided to use the pan to make a frittata for everyone. We paired that with a fruit salad and some simple cinnamon rolls. The frittata turned out amazing! Ever since then, this has been one of my family’s favorite meals.

Frittatas are so easy, delicious and versatile! You can add just about any vegetable your family likes as well as your favorite cheese and breakfast meat. Bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, spinach and mushrooms are among the many different vegetables you can add to a frittata. We love bell peppers in my family, so those are always included. Also, turkey sausage makes the perfect breakfast meat for this frittata. To make this recipe even easier than it already is, I bought pre-cooked turkey sausage crumbles, and used about 2/3 of the bag. However, you can use regular sausage, bacon or even ham.
