POTATO AND RED PEPPER FRITTATA
This recipe is from Everyday Food. The original recipe calls for 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary. I choose to omit it. Being onion lovers, I added a whole onion rather than 1/2 as the recipe stipulated. NOTE: It's okay if potatoes are not cooked evenly. Some will be browned; others only transparent. The original recipe suggests using an 8-inch skillet.

Tips:
- Use a variety of bell peppers. This will give your frittata a more vibrant color and flavor.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. They should be tender, but still have a little bit of bite to them.

- Cover the skillet while the frittata is cooking. This will help to trap the heat and cook the frittata evenly.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before serving. This will make it easier to slice and serve.
