Individual Sun-dried Tomato and Sausage Ricotta Frittatas
Individual Sun-dried Tomato and Sausage Ricotta Frittatas
Frittata’s are the easiest breakfast dish to prepare. Using ingredients that you have in your pantry/fridge you can come up with the most fantastic combinations. Its no secret that I have a deep love for sun-dried tomatoes. I buy tomatoes by the case, not the pound and keep my fridge and freezer stocked with these fantastic gems. When making this frittata I looked to ingredients that could bring the most flavor to this ricotta frittata. Made with hot Italian chicken sausage, sun-dried tomatoes and ricotta cheese it is absolutely delightful.
It is smooth and creamy, rich and fluffy. It is simply amazing! This frittata reheats perfectly. Munchkin and I have been enjoying these for breakfast all week. These Individual Sun-dried Tomato Ricotta Frittatas are the perfect breakfast in a bowl. Add orange juice and you have a healthy balanced breakfast! Enjoy!
