Equipment

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 6 slices bacon diced
  • 2 bunches kale stems removed and coarsely chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 cups refrigerated hash browns
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk whole or 2%

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray four large 4.5-inch ramekins with cooking spray.
  • Place the bacon in a skillet or saute pan and cook 3-4 minutes or until cooked and crisp. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve drippings in the pan.
  • Add the kale and cook 2-3 minutes or until wilted using tongs to toss the kale so that it all cooks evenly. Drain off any excess moisture or oil. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Stir in the bacon, hash browns, cheddar cheese and salt and black pepper and mix well.
  • Divide mixture evenly among the large ramekins.
  • Whisk eggs and milk together.
  • Pour into ramekins in even amounts.
  • Bake 35-40 minutes or until set in the center.

Notes

Frittatas can also be made in regular-sized muffin cups, oversized muffin cups, or in one large pan. Adjust baking time accordingly.  Frittatas are done when puffed and golden around the edges and the center is set.
FREEZER-FRIENDLY:
  • Store in an airtight container.  Thaw in the refrigerator or microwave.
  • Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees or in the microwave.
