This is such a delicious breakfast and brunch, or even dinner recipe.

It is the perfect and most satisfying meal to be enjoyed at any time. This frittata recipe came together during RUSH HOUR. If you’re wondering what I mean–here is the long and short of the story.

I had just left a dental appointment that ran a little longer than expected. So I needed to come up with a super easy and quick dish for my pending and regular lunch date with my sister and any other family members. So I needed simple ingredients and a thirty minute recipe while racing through the aisles of the grocery store.

Also, there was absolutely no time to search the Food Network recipe index or even stream food icon, Rachel Ray’s telecast 30 MINUTE MEALS.

So being it was Thursday and our normal routine weekly lunch date–as well as a day where I normally have the opportunity to either put my recipe development skills to task or simply opt to make something familiar. Well, the first option is what I did. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

I’m happy to say that though my sister Angela is not so much picky about the type of dish (be it chicken, beef, or seafood), she is where the ingredients used are concerned. An example of this, is mayonnaise or other creamy white condiments. Well she has a fetish or better yet phobia where these type of ingredients are concerned.

Trust me when I say, I usually have my work cut out for me. However, for this particular breakfast-for-lunch or brunch recipe–my Bake Summer Sausage, Spinach, and Gouda Pasta Frittata, this 30 minute recipe I masterfully created was a hit with Angela as well as my entire family, and I’m sure it will be with yours as well.
