This makes a wonderful weekend brunch, I have made it many time in the past, it's very easy to make too! You can make this using cold cooked finely diced potatoes in place of hash browns, I have made this using leftover potatoes with great success! Feel free to add in green bell pepper, jalapeno peppers, skiced mushrooms, or whatever you wish! The skillet cooking time will take slightly longer.

Tips and Tricks for a Perfect Ham and Egg Frittata:

1. Choose Fresh Ingredients: Opt for fresh eggs and high-quality ham for the best flavor and texture. Fresh herbs like chives or parsley add a vibrant touch of flavor. 2. Preheat Your Pan: Ensure your pan is adequately heated before adding the egg mixture. This helps prevent sticking and ensures even cooking. 3. Use a Non-Stick Pan: A non-stick pan is ideal for making frittatas as it prevents the eggs from sticking and breaking. 4. Whisk the Eggs Thoroughly: Whisk the eggs until they are well-blended and frothy. This creates a light and fluffy frittata. 5. Season the Eggs: Don't forget to season the egg mixture with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor. You can also add herbs or spices of your choice. 6. Layer the Ingredients Evenly: Arrange the ham, cheese, and other fillings evenly over the bottom of the pan before pouring the egg mixture. This ensures that each slice has a good balance of ingredients. 7. Cook on Low Heat: Cook the frittata on low heat to prevent it from overcooking and burning. This also ensures that the center cooks evenly. 8. Flip the Frittata Carefully: Once the bottom of the frittata is cooked, carefully flip it over to cook the other side. Use a spatula and make sure the frittata is firm enough to hold its shape. 9. Serve with Sides: Serve the frittata with a side salad, roasted vegetables, or fruit for a complete and balanced meal.
