  • Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

– 3 links Italian sausages for hearty savory base

– 2 medium bell peppers, sliced for sweetness and crunch

– 1 large onion, sliced for subtle sweetness and depth

– 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil for roasting and sautéing

– 2 cloves garlic, unpeeled and whole for mellow aroma

– Salt and pepper to taste for enhancing flavors

– 10 large eggs for binding everything together

– ⅓ cup cream (or milk) for making eggs creamy and rich

– ¾ teaspoon kosher salt for seasoning the egg mixture

– Fresh ground black pepper for adding spicy kick

– ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese for nutty salty element

– ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese for tangy contrast

– 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for freshening up flavors

Instructions

1-First Step: Preheat and Prep the Ingredients Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to get things started. I toss the 3 links Italian sausages, 2 medium sliced bell peppers, 1 large sliced onion, and 2 whole garlic cloves with 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. This roasting step takes 25-35 minutes and builds deep flavors.

2-Second Step: Roast the Mixture Roast everything on the baking sheet until the pepper are tender and the sausage hits an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Once done, I remove the garlic, mash it with a fork, and mix it back in for a garlicky boost. Let the mixture cool slightly and adjust the seasoning to taste.

3-Third Step: Prepare the Egg Mixture Lower the oven to 400°F (200°C) next. In a bowl, whisk the 10 large eggs with ⅓ cup cream until blended, then stir in ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper, and ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese. Slice the cooled sausages into bite-sized pieces to make them easy to incorporate.

4-Fourth Step: Cook on the Stovetop Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture, add the sausage and roasted pepper mixture, and sprinkle with ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the bottom sets and starts to brown, stirring gently if needed.

5-Fifth Step: Finish in the Oven Top with a bit more Parmesan for extra crispiness, then bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. You’re aiming for a puffed top and a center that jiggles slightly it’s my favorite sign it’s done just right. Let it rest for 10 minutes before cutting into wedges.

6-Final Step: Serve and Enjoy Once rested, slice the frittata into wedges and serve it warm. I pair it with fruit or toast for a complete meal. For more breakfast ideas, check out our healthy apple oatmeal breakfast bake recipe, which complements this dish perfectly.

Notes

🥘 Don’t skip roasting the vegetables first – this develops deep flavors and prevents excess moisture in the final frittata
🍳 Watch the eggs carefully – they should be puffed and slightly jiggly in the center when done, not dry or overcooked
⏱️ Let it rest before cutting – this crucial step helps the frittata set and makes slicing much cleaner
