LOADED BAKED FRITTATA
Sautéed onion, pepper and spinach lace this sturdy frittata that's as good warm out of the pan as it is cold. Bacon and goat cheese enrich the mix, which can be eaten alone or put in a sandwich (see tip below). This recipe is, of course, delicious as is, but you can also take a cue from one of our commenters, Joan, who made this with leftover peppers and onions, adding sliced roasted baby potatoes. Ready in 45 minutes, it lasts for up to three days in the refrigerator, so you can enjoy it as long as it lasts - which may not be very long.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until smooth. Set aside.
- Put bacon in a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron or oven-safe nonstick skillet. Set over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add onion, peppers and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the spinach a handful at a time, stirring after each addition, to wilt.
- Reduce heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the vegetables, then smooth the top. Drop small nuggets of goat cheese evenly on top. Transfer to the oven.
- Bake until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set, 20 to 25 minutes. When you shake the pan, the eggs shouldn't jiggle. Cool on a rack for about 10 minutes.
- Cut into wedges to serve warm or at room temperature.

EASY OVEN BAKED FRITTATA
Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C).
- In a non stick pan or baking dish (8-9 inch / 22 cm) add the olive oil and chopped pancetta and zucchini cook until golden brown. Stirring often so that they don't burn or stick to the pan.
- While the zucchini and pancetta are sauteeing, in a medium bowl beat together the eggs and parmesan cheese, stir in the parsley and pepper. Then pour the mixture into the pan with the cooked zucchini and pancetta, stir gently to combine.
- Place pan in pre-heated oven and bake for about 20 minutes. The Frittata is done when the eggs are puffed and opaque in colour. It should still wiggle just a tiny bit in the centre (don't worry it will continue to cook even when it's removed from the oven). Let sit 5 minutes then slice and serve. Enjoy!
