Corned Beef Breakfast Frittatas

Frittata is a dish that uses a lot of egg, similar to an omelette or crustless quiche which is almost like a pie as some would describe it. It’s an easy dish to prepare and is sure to be a new hit for your home.

What you need to prepare:

• 2 cans CDO Home-Style Corned Beef, pre-cooked
• 8 eggs
• 2 bread Slices
• 4 slices of cheddar cheese
• 4 tablespoons milk
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
• Parsley, garnish

Procedure:

Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 350F.

Step 2
In a mixing bowl, crack open all of your eggs. The number of eggs is dependent on the size of your pan but eight eggs should be fine for a 10-inch pan. Season with salt and pepper. Beat well. Set aside.

Step 3
On medium-high heat put the bread in the pan and crisp on both sides. Set aside afterward.

Step 4
Add one tablespoon of cooking oil in the pan with medium-high heat then add in the CDO Home-Style Corned Beef. Saute.

Step 5
Add the bread back into the mix and add in the milk. After the milk is absorbed, add in the second tablespoon of oil.

Step 6
Pour in the beaten eggs and the pieces of sliced cheese. Make sure to spread the beaten eggs evenly in the pan. Cook for two minutes on the stovetop.

Step 7
Place in the oven until the eggs are set. If you don’t have an oven, you may choose to keep cooking the frittata in the pan by covering the pan then wait until the top layer of egg also sets.

This dish is something very easy and delicious using CDO Home-Style Corned Beef that you can prepare for your family.
