Can you all believe that we are nearing the middle of August already. Needless to say, I feel like the summer is just flying by and soon I’ll be needing to get back into school mode. My boys are going into Pre K and 1st grade, yea they are growing too fast. We all know that starting the morning out with a good breakfast is incredibly important for how we get through our work day or our kids through the school day. Thankfully with @Johnsonville Breakfast Sausage, #backtoschoolbreakfast just got a whole lot easier and more delicious!
When I can I’d rather not have to make separate meals for my hubby and I and the kids because really who wants all that extra work. This Sausage, Potato, Spinach & Cheddar Frittata is definitely a family friendly dish and the perfect way to start the day. It all comes together right in one oven safe skillet {I used a cast iron, enamel coated 10″ skillet} so no pile of dishes to do while trying to run out the door to get the kids to school. It is incredibly hearty and jam packed with flavor, especially from the perfectly seasoned Fresh @Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage.
I absolutely love frittatas because they are so easy and versatile! You really can use anything you have on hand. This is started on the stovetop with the potatoes and sausage browned up in a combo of butter and olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Then you simply stir in a dozen eggs, baby spinach and cheddar. Pop right into the oven and bake until golden, bubbly and cooked through. You can cook this the night before then slice, warm and enjoy for a quick #backtoschoolbreakfast perfect for the entire family.
