Country Bacon & Potato Frittata

Good day to all my readers, I just wanted to take a quick minute to introduce myself. My name is Chef Buz Deliere, I graduated from International Culinary Academy Le Cordon Bleu Pittsburgh in 2001, I have a passion for food and making mixed cocktails so after culinary school I spent a lot of time traveling and learning about the various cultures, food, and drinks. From Pittsburgh to the Caribbean, New York, and Canada I am very excited to have the opportunity to share them with you all, so let’s get to it. Now that we are in warmer weather it’s time to start having the Sunday brunch on your back patio. I love nothing more than a hot cup of coffee, the quiet beauty of nature, and something light and delicious. Something great for your Sunday brunch this spring season is my delicious and easy Country Bacon & Potato Frittata. The great thing about this recipe is there are so many different variations and it’s super simple to make vegetarian as well. Fresh spinach is another great ingredient to add, as well as sausage, ham, or turkey the possibilities are almost endless. Don’t forget a good mimosa or VOJ (Vodka O.J.) to go with it too. So, let’s dive right into this month’s recipe and a mimosa or two.

Country Bacon & Potato Frittata

Yields 4             Cook Time: 35-40 minutes

  • 4 Slices Bacon, Chopped
  • ½ Green Pepper, Diced
  • ¼ Onion, Diced
  • ½ Cup Potatoes, Diced and Parboiled
  • 6 Eggs
  • ¼ Cup Milk
  • ¼ Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • Salt & Black Pepper to taste
  • *½ Cup Fresh Spinach* (Optional)

First, you’ll want to preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, making sure the rack is in the center. Now start to cook your bacon in a large ovenproof skillet, I like to cut the bacon in half when cooking it. Cook to your desired preference, I like my bacon a little more on the soft side.

Remove the bacon when done and put on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess grease. Once cooled, chop up the bacon and put aside for later. Now in the same skillet add your potatoes, onions, and green peppers to the bacon grease and cook for about 10 minutes, you want the potatoes to be browned and evenly cooked. Now is the time to add the spinach and cook until wilted, once wilted add back the bacon and spread the mixture out evenly on the bottom of the skillet. Whisk the eggs and milk, salt, and pepper together. Make sure the eggs are mixed thoroughly then add in the cheese and mix. Now gently pour the egg mixture over the potato and veggies making sure it’s even throughout. In the oven, it goes for about 15-20 minutes, just until the eggs are set. This is a very light and fluffy dish once the eggs are cooked remove from the oven and slice and serve immediately.
