Nothing beats a great breakfast. Except maybe breakfast for dinner. It is one of our go-to dinner ideas in my house because it is fast, cheap and there are so many options. Frittatas are great because it is an inexpensive option that can be a great way to use up leftovers.
I love an easy skillet meal. Dinner is easier when it is made in one pan. In the past, we have shared a few skillet meals, like Cajun Pork Skillet Meal and Asian Pork Chops Skillet Meal. We even make an Autumn Vegetables and Pasta Skillet Meal that combines all the flavor of fall vegetables in one easy pot.
There is a lot of time that we go through the refrigerator and look for leftovers that we haven’t eaten yet. We are able to use the leftovers meat and veggies in this frittata recipe. What I love is I can make this recipe for very little money. It is a true budget meal. Eggs are very inexpensive and by using leftovers, the recipe costs almost nothing.
