Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch casserole pan with cooking spray.
- Set a medium pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with the back of a wooden spoon or spatula, until cooked through and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove to a bowl and set aside. Add the onion to the pan and saute until translucent and the browned bits of sausage in the pan have been picked up by the onion, about 5 minutes -- this will add lots of flavor! Once the onions are cooked, add the potatoes. Cook until they are tender and just beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. If necessary, add more olive oil so the potatoes don't burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. Remove the potatoes and onions to the bowl of sausage. Coat the pan with a bit of olive oil and add the broccoli. Saute until just tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the sausage bowl.
- Add the milk, cream, eggs and some salt and pepper to a separate medium bowl and whisk to combine.
- Transfer the sausage and vegetable mixture to the prepared casserole pan. Toss and distribute evenly on the bottom of the pan. Gently pour the egg mixture over the top. Bake until the frittata is puffed and beginning to brown and the egg is set in the middle, about 30 minutes. Allow to set for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with the dill and serve. The frittata is delicious hot out of the oven, room temperature or even cold!

Steps:
- Bake potato in microwave 4 minutes. Remove skin. Dice into ½ inch cubes.
- In a skillet, brown potato slightly with 2 Tbls butter and season with all "dashes" of seasonings and rosemary and parsley.
- Place in deep dish 10" pie pan or deep 9" x 9" glass baking dish that has been buttered or "Pam-ed" along with the bacon (or meat of your choice). If you double the recipe, use a 9" x 13" glass baking dish.
- Beat eggs (or you can use egg substitute), cheese, milk, salt and pepper together and pour over potatoes and meat.
- Bake in pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. To make sure that the center gets done before the outer edge gets too brown, Pam a small bisquit cutter or something small and metal, and place it in the center of the mixture. This will draw heat to the center so it bakes evenly.
- Serve with sliced cantaloupe and strawberries and mini muffins for breakfast.
- Or serve with a fresh greens salad and Italian bread for dinner or brunch.

Tips:
- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to prevent the frittata from sticking.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. This will help them hold their shape in the frittata.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet with the potatoes. If you do, they will not cook evenly.
- Use a spatula to gently lift and fold the eggs over the potatoes as they cook. This will help to create a light and fluffy frittata.
- Don't overcook the frittata. It is done when the eggs are just set and the center of the frittata is still a little bit wobbly.
- Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to hold its shape.

The savory egg and potato frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes.
