Sounds tasty though I'd leave out the Jalepeno. I don't like hot/spicy.

I'm not sure about the jalapenos though...I tasted one once and my mouth burned for 24 hours! Lol

Have a great weekend! 😊😊

Yummy! Happy Sunday to you.

Nadezda said...

It sounds tasty, Jan. However I doubt if is it necessary so many eggs? maybe less?

Carola Bartz said...

It does look delicious. I'm not a huge fan of Jalapeño peppers though and probably would substitute them.

DMS said...

Today, for my lunch, I had a vegetable and cheese frittata. :)

Sami said...

I'll go and look at the recipe as it looks delicious, but I'll have to leave the jalapenos out, as I don't like spicy food. Thanks Jan.

Iris Flavia said...

Hmmm, sounds very yummy! I´ll try a pan-version, though ;-)

Jenn Jilks said...

I used to love making this kind of thing. I saw one on a movie I was watching and drooled!!!
Great one.

Hello Nadezda
Many thanks for your comment and question.
This is a tasty recipe, some people find it a little too hot and they reduce the number of jalapeños.
With regard to eggs - seven (medium size) eggs seems to work well (on a serving for six people) but depending on the size of your eggs you could try reducing it to six …

This frittata makes a great low carb meal when served with the salad.
If you should try it please come back and leave your thoughts and feedback...many thanks.

All the best Jan
