Author Notes
I have two chickens that produce more eggs than I can handle. I give some away, but still, there is always excess.
I had to use some up, and found a recipe for Brussel Sprout Tortilla which I promptly twisted to be my own. I always like to use my leftovers, so I added the tater tots from a get together I had over the weekend. You can use 1 baking potato, diced, as a substitute.
If you like meat in your frittata, add it. I was in a rush and added some Trader Joe’s Mini Meatballs, cut into halves. Leftover chicken or sausage would be great too. Honestly, its great without the meat.
I had second helpings, it was that good. And we are definitely a pro brussel sprout household. Sub in broccoli if you wish, either lightly steamed florets, or smaller pieces that you can cook in about 10 minutes in a saute pan. —kimbaddd
