Easy Meat & Vegetable Fritatta


Here is a quick and easy meal to make when all you have in your fridge is eggs, some kind of meat and vegetables.  All I literally had left in my fridge was milk, eggs, sausage and broccoli so this was the perfect alternative to spending money and going out!  Make this for dinner or breakfast and use whatever combo of meat and vegetables that you like.  Also, it tastes just as good the next day, hot or cold so make extra if you want leftovers.  You may find that you start making fritattas often because they are so easy and delish.  Enjoy!
