Tomato-Basil-Sausage Frittata

Recipe: Tomato-basil-sausage frittata

School is back in session, so meal prepping my breakfast ensures that I get some fuel in the tank quickly. I love frittatas because I can switch up the veggies (from tomato-basil to broccoli, asparagus, onions, or mushrooms) and protein sources (bacon, sausage, cheese, ham, etc.) and keep things interesting. I also like that everything goes into one skillet - minimizing my dishes and simplifying the entire cooking process. Feel free to make substitutions here - get creative and have fun!

Ingredients

8 eggs

16 oz. turkey sausage

¼ cup milk or water

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

2 TBSP basil (dried or fresh)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved


Directions 
  1. Heat a large skillet on medium-high heat. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Add your turkey sausage to the skillet, brown and use a spatula or spoon to separate.
  3. While the sausage is cooking, grab a large mixing bowl. Crack your eggs into the bowl and whisk. Add your milk (or water), salt, pepper, basil and cherry tomatoes and give her a stir. 
  4. Once the sausage has browned, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. 
  5. Place the skillet into the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the eggs are no longer runny in the center. 
  6. Divide into 4 servings and serve or save it in airtight containers in the fridge for later as meal prep!

*For best results when you reheat, place it in the oven at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes.

Meet John Pretti. Born in 1964 and raised in Germany by a German mother and American father, who was a military officer in the U.S. Army. He grew up as an athlete, playing and competing in soccer, football, basketball, and wrestling. In 1988, he moved to the United States and became a police officer at the age of 24 and later joined the Pennsylvania and Florida National Guard. John got by with limited physical training as he simply wasn’t interested and lacked discipline. Fast forward to 2010, after working 22 years as a law enforcement officer, the job began to take its toll in the form of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). Deep in his battle with depression, John turned to alcohol for comfort for nearly two years - almost losing his family along with everything else. He knew he had to get help. In 2012, he joined CrossFit Black Box in Tallahassee and there he discovered a place to channel his emotions and stress. He found relief.
