Chorizo Frittata
April 9, 2025 • 0 comments

There’s something so comforting about a warm, hearty frittata fresh out of the oven. It feels a little fancy, but it’s incredibly quick and easy to make. This recipe is perfect for slow mornings, meal prep, or a simple weeknight dinner. The chorizo adds a rich flavor, and you can easily swap the veggies and cheese for whatever you have on hand. I used a 12-inch cast iron skillet - if yours is smaller, just reduce the number of eggs to fit.
