Ham and Cheese Frittaco

Recipe information

  • Yield

    1 serving

Ingredients

2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) (eyeball it)
2 large eggs, beaten
A splash of half-and-half or milk (1 to 2 tablespoons)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A few drops of hot sauce, such as Tabasco
1 slice, your choice: Swiss, provolone, or slicing Cheddar
2 slices deli ham, your choice: baked, smoked, boiled, or prosciutto

Preparation

  1. Heat a small nonstick skillet with the EVOO over medium-low to medium heat. Beat the eggs with a splash of half-and-half, salt and pepper, and hot sauce. Cook the eggs in the skillet for 2 minutes without disturbing them. Once the eggs have browned and set, flip the frittata. Add a layer of cheese, then the ham, folding it to fit in the pan and cover the surface of the eggs and cheese evenly. Fold the frittata so it looks like a taco, and slide it onto a plate. Eat!
