MIX-AND-MATCH FRITTATA

Steps:

• Beat eggs, liquid, and seasonings in medium bowl until blended. Add filling; mix well.
• Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and pour in egg mixture. Cook over low to medium heat until eggs are almost set, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Cover and let stand until eggs are completely set and no visible liquid egg remains, 5 to 10 minutes. Or, if your skillet doesn't have a lid, set the skillet under the broiler very briefly (this is what I did) until the eggs are set.
• Optional: Sprinkle with shredded cheese, bread crumbs or crushed chips and heat (on the stove or under the broiler) until the cheese is melted or topping is lightly browned.
• Slide the frittata onto a plate and cut into wedges.
