Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 6 Eggs
- 100g Short Cut Bacon
- 4 Potato Utopia Spinach & Ricotta Potato Gratins
- 80g Shredded Tasty Light Cheddar Cheese
- 10g Spring Onion (for garnish)
- 100mL Pauls Plus Protein Low Fat Milk
Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan-forced). Line a baking dish or ovenproof pan with baking paper for easy clean-up.
- Dice the bacon and cook in a non-stick pan over medium heat until crispy and golden.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Place the Potato Utopia gratins evenly across your dish. These will form the hearty base of your frittata.
- Pour the egg mixture over the gratins, letting it settle throughout the dish.
- Top with the cooked bacon and sprinkle the cheese evenly across the top.
- Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour, or until the centre is set. For a golden finish, uncover during the final 5–10 minutes of baking.
- Slice, garnish with spring onion and serve hot — or keep it in the fridge for an easy grab-and-go meal.
