hash brown frittata

You can make a frittata a million different ways. I change up the protein and veggies every time I make a frittata based on what I have on hand. This one was one I made not that long ago. In this rendition, I added sliced ham, sweet peppers, and purple onions. It was a nice balance of savory and sweet. I was able to share this with some friends and family and they all loved it. I had some fresh salsa that I made using tomatoes from my garden and it was the perfect addition to this delicious Hash Brown Frittata. When I don’t have fresh salsa, I like adding my Romesco as a topper to my frittata.

The key is browning the hash browns first. This will give a good base for your other ingredients to sit on and browning the hash browns adds so much flavor. Don’t skip this step. I usually start the hash browns while I prep the other ingredients.
