  • 1 cup 6-cheese Italian blend of finely grated cheese
  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • Pour the egg mixture over cooked sausage and onions.
  • Sprinkle the grated cheese on top, gently blending into the egg/sausage mixture.
  • COVER and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, keeping an eye on the bottom (lift up with a spatula) to make sure that it is not burning.
  • Broil the frittata on the lower shelf of your oven until gold brown - - keeping an eye on it to prevent burning.
  • Let the frittata sit for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with freshly picked Italian parsley while it is setting.
  • Cut into wedges and serve with Italian artisan bread.
  • Salt and pepper to taste upon serving.
