Made this for 3 very hungry teens this morning before school. Oh my, they loved it!! Next time will double the recipe. I was lazy and used Tater Tots instead of potatoes. When most of the egg had cooked, I put the pan under the broiler to finish the top and then added the cheese. Let the cheese melt under the broiler and served. It was so very easy and such a hit. Thanks for a great recipe! Will be making this one often I am sure.

What a great breakfast! I think next time I will leave out the olive oil since the bacon makes plenty of grease ~ which I drained after it was cooked. I used just salt and pepper. It came out wonderfully! Thanks for posting a keeper!

Excellent frittata! I cooked the bacon alone and fried the onions and mushrooms in the drippings, other than that I did it exactly as said. It is a recipe I will make again. Thanks.

I found this because like Terriyaki 2, I had 3 teenage boys here this morning who were starving. I didn't have bacon so I used some cooked italian meatballs that I had left over and chopped them up and put them in the pan at the time you put in bacon; I didn't have mushrooms either. I doubled the potatoes, eggs and cheese. I also used a mixture of dill, rosemary, oregano and terragon because they were the spices I had used in the meatballs. Long story short, those boys goobled the entire dish up before I could get my second bite! This is an incredible recipe even though I didn't have all the required ingredients! Fabulous dish, a keeper in my house and thank you for sharing.

My daughter is learning to cook (she turns 13 this month!) and she was easily able to follow this recipe. The family gobbled up her frittata and the smile on her face was worth 5 stars! She did opt to use 8 oz of sliced mushrooms and increased the cheese to TWO cups - whoops. The increase in the mushrooms was great but two cups of cheese was a bit over the top. Thanks for the recipe and the time with my daughter!

I'm not big on breakfast at all...but BF requested I make breakfast, and someone suggested a frittata, and it led me to this recipe. I used leftover red potatoes, and I drained the drippings after I fried the bacon and onion. Left out the mushrooms because I didnt' have any, but I added some jalapeno. BF said it was fantastic. I'll make it again, thanks!

Friedel, really excellant Frittata!!! We pigged out on it, the two of us ate all three portions!! I did the bacon different from the recipe, cooked the bacon first, alone, drained the fat, then added the mushrooms, onion and I added 1 chopped jalepeno pepper and used the dill. I was surpized at how much the frittata puffed up under the broiler, with the potatoes in it; I had thought it might be quite heavy, not so, light and fluffy! We enjoyed it and will be making it again, DH says soon!! Thanks for sharing!

This turned out great. Hubby and I had it for dinner the other night with toast and it was perfectly light but filling. The only thing I did differently was use canned potatoes and hubby commented that a little less potato would be good. Also I used ready-made bacon strips so the time involved cooking this went down to just about nothing! I had enough left over for breakfast the next day and the frittata reheats in the microwave real nice. It's a keeper. Great Recipe! Thanks!

This was great. I didn't follow the recpe exactly — it's one of those that you can alter to suit your tastes and to what you have on hand. I added some asparagus — plus my potatoes were pretty large so I increased the eggs to 7. Instead of dill, I used a little bit of Italian Seasoning. This is a great recipe and one that can be adapted to whatever you might have on hand. Thank you for sharing.
