Recipe insights & TIPS

Some people like sweet for breakfast or brunch, I'm firmly stuck in the savory camp! Sure, I like some french toast once in a while but bacon, sausage and melted cheese is what fires me up in the morning...every once in a while.

A fluffy breakfast frittata filled with sausage and cheese and topped with sweet salsa

This is such an easy breakfast frittata to make. With only a few ingredients in the mixture, it's mainly egg and milk. But if you're like me and share my love for all things spicy, you'll understand why salsa has to be added, especially Sabra Salsa. Sabra have a great choice of salsa but the Mango and Peach might be my favorite. It's spicy kick is mellowed out by the sweet juicy chunks of fresh peaches and I mean chunks because this ain't no puree. It's also a really adaptable recipe, you can choose your own sausage because there's no shortageof amazing flavors to choose from, so knock yourself out at an awesome meat counter and get adventurous. For herbs I used fresh thyme but you could use rosemary, sage or even oregano.

Eggs, sausage, pepperjack cheese and salsa make this breakfast frittata a perfect brunch idea

I always like to make breakfast on the weekend a little bit more special than Monday through Friday. You can make this crazy-easy breakfast frittata in one pan, set it on the table and let everyone go at it. Just be sure to serve it straight away or it'll start to lose it's puffiness. It's a little like a soufflé and it looks it's best when just ready. Don't forget to ladle on the salsa!

If you don't have a blender, you can just hand whisk the egg mixture. Try to incorporate as much air into the mixture as possible to get a light fritatta.
