Potato and Bacon Frittata

in ,

The chickens have been really doing well with their egg laying! We get about 20 eggs a week. Egg dishes are a regular staple for our dinner repertoire. This Frittata was a super quick throw together meal. The bacon can be omitted to make it vegetarian but it really makes it extra hearty.
