BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR FRITTATA
A frittata is an excellent way to sneak veggies into your family's diet, and in this recipe, the veggie is broccoli. Also, thawed, diced hash brown potatoes speed up the cook time and the prep time, too. If you want more color on top of the frittata, shorten the baking time by a couple of minutes, and use the broiler to achieve the color you want. For breakfast or brunch, fresh fruit or baby tomatoes make a great side.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Whisk eggs, cream, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Set aside.
- Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until bubbly. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chopped broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Lightly season vegetables with additional salt and pepper.
- Gently pat the vegetables into an even layer with the back of a spatula or spoon and turn off the heat. Sprinkle cheese over the vegetables, followed by bacon.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently shake to eliminate any holes around the vegetables. Let the residual heat cook the eggs slightly, about 2 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Check for doneness by using a knife to cut the center slightly. Eggs should not be runny enough to fill the cut. Allow to cool in the skillet for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Separate 4 of the eggs, putting the whites into a medium sized bowl and discarding the yolks. Add the 4 whole eggs and 2 tablespoons of water to the whites and whisk well.

- Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be tender but still have a slight crunch to it. If you overcook it, it will become mushy.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the frittata from sticking.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat: Medium heat will help to prevent the frittata from burning.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help to prevent it from falling apart.
