Ingredients

• 2 cups leftover stuffing
• 6 large eggs
• 0.25 cup milk
• 0.5 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup bell pepper, finely diced
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon olive oil or additional butter
• 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, shredded cheese, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

In an oven-safe skillet (such as a cast-iron skillet), heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil (or butter) over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 5

Stir in the leftover stuffing, breaking up any large clumps. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to warm through.

Step 6

Spread the stuffing and vegetable mixture in an even layer across the skillet.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the stuffing, ensuring it evenly covers the contents of the skillet.

Step 8

Cook the frittata on the stovetop over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set. Avoid stirring.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed, golden, and the center is set. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
