I made this to take a work breakfast. Wow, we all thought it was delicious. Lotta color and Southwestern ingredients. I used 1/2 lb. chorizo, because I love it so much and added some salt and pepper. This would be good for a brunch too. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes breakfast casseroles.

A good Sunday morning breakfast casserole with a very colourful presentation! I scaled it in half - serving 2 people & husband will get leftovers in his lunch. It took about 50 minutes to set, most likely because I used fat free sour cream. Thanx Geema!

Wonderful! I love frittata, but never thought to do a fiesta version. I had some ricotta to use up so subbed that in for the cheddar, and used little tiny shrimps instead of bacon bits. I also kept the sour cream out and used it to top the frittata after it had baked. Very nice dinner, and I'm looking forward to the leftovers. Thanks.
