Quick and Easy Frittata

1/4 # meat (I pulsed my bacon/sausage mixture with my Ninja)
1/4 onion, finely chopped
1 # greens, finely chopped
3-4 eggs
2 oz cheese (also pulsed)
1 tsp butter
Your favorite iron skillet



 Preheat skillet 3-4 minutes on med-low

Add butter and swirl. 

Add onion and cook till translucent.

Add Bacon/ sausage mixture.











Add greens and cook for a few minutes to reduce.















Add eggs and poke the base all over, but don't stir. 

















Once eggs have a nice base and look 1/2 way done, add cheese.





Place under your preheated broiler, watching the entire time. 
Remove and check for doneness. 
Cheese will brown and bubble and eggs will be done. 










Enjoy!
