Notes
These mini frittatas can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For a spicier kick, use hot Italian sausage or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
Feel free to substitute sausage with bacon or ham as desired.
To reheat, simply microwave for 30-60 seconds or warm in the oven until heated through.
