Sausage and Peppers Frittata

Let’s get spicy today with this sausage and peppers frittata that’s filled with sausage, mushrooms, potatoes, and of course peppers and chilis—jalapeños, serrano and anaheim chili and papilla.

That’s the beauty of frittatas, they are a great vehicle for emptying out your fridge. I did a little of that here with the mushrooms and potatoes, but the real flavor of this recipe comes through from all the peppers.

And yes, it’s a little spicy, but that’s what I intended. Lucky for me I have a house full of spicy eaters. But since we all like our heat at varying levels, I make sure to serve spicy dishes like this with milk.

For those of you that don’t know, milk is a great beverage to cool down your palate if you take on more heat than you can handle.

But outside of spicy, milk makes a regular appearance at my table. It’s the beverage of choice in my home. We don’t relegate it to cereal, dessert or spicy dishes. Nope, next to water, it’s our comfort drink.
