Ingredients:
1 red bell pepper cut in half, roasted and cut into thin strips - approximately 6 oz (stems and seeds removed)
1 chorizo link - diced
3 oz red onion cut into thin wedges
6 eggs
1/4 cup whole milk
Olive oil cooking spray
Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and place pepper skin side up and roast for 15 minutes. Then turn the broil on for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before peeling off the skin and cutting into thin strips. Leave the oven on at 400 degrees F to finish off the last step of the frittata.
Using a stainless steel pan, spray with olive oil cooking spray and bring to medium heat. Add chorizo and onion and cook until onions are soft and chorizo starts to brown.
Add the red peppers and cook for an additional 30 seconds to one minute.
Mix together milk, eggs, and salt and pepper and pour over the mixture in the pan making sure to distribute the egg evenly. Cook on low for 6-7 minutes.
Place pan back in the oven and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the frittata is golden on top. Serve with a nice mixed green salad or a cup of fruit.
