Tiffany, How did it turn out?
I added turkey sausage to this recipe and it was great.
This is for supper tonight! Yay!
Amanda, Great! Love frittatas for supper.
This is a delicious frittata…it is a fave… We have tweaked it sometimes when I don't have all the ingredients!
Wondering how these are as leftovers? With just my husband and I it's bound to happen. Thanks for the info
Never had leftovers. To be honest, I'm not big on leftover egg recipes…always best fresh out of the slow cooker. Let us know if you try it and what you think.
This is my favorite recipe from here so far. As previously mentioned, I have found it takes a little longer to cook than specified in the recipe. Usually about an hour and 45 minutes.
One of my favorites for breakfast. I make this every other week!
If I double this recipe for a group, how much longer will it need to set?
Deb, 2 – 2 1/2 hours…check after 2.
Does it matter what size slow cooker to use?
Leah, 4 – 6 quart.
