Blue Ribbon Recipe

This egg frittata will be delicious for your next brunch. It's also a great meal prep recipe because it can be heated in the microwave. We loved the combination of spinach, red bell pepper, and sun-dried tomatoes. With slices of potatoes and sweet potatoes, it's very hearty. Since it contains potatoes, this is similar to a Spanish tortilla. The primary difference is that a Spanish tortilla is flipped to cook both sides, and a frittata is finished cooking in the oven.
