BREAKFAST SKILLET FRITTATA

Steps:

• Brown and drain sausage. Set aside. You can use any sausage. Diced smoked sausage is a great substitute.
• Lightly brown potatoes in hot oil in a 10" skillet.
• Add onion and diced peppers, and cook till onions are translucent.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Note: In place of the potatoes, onions, and peppers, you can use Orida's O'Brian style potatoes. Prepare according to instructions.
• Lightly scramble eggs in a bowl with half and half, hot sauce and baking soda.
• Spread potato and sausage out evenly in skillet and pour eggs over. Tilt and rotate the pan to ensure even coverage of the eggs.
• Add diced pepper jack cheese. You can use any cheese you have on hand. I've made this with mozzarella, provolone, gouda, you name it.
• Salt and pepper mixture.
• Cover with grated cheddar cheese. Again, you can use what ever is on hand, but I have found the sharp cheddar is best here.
• Cook on the stove until bottom is set.
• Transfer to pre heated oven (350 degrees). Bake for 10 minutes.
• Switch to broil on medium until the cheese is just starting to brown and the eggs are set.
• Let stand for 15 minutes, then slice and serve.
