My family really enjoyed this frittata. I made this in a 12" cast iron skillet which gave the potatoes a nice, crispy crust. This goes together quickly and the flavors work well together in this dish. Next time, I think that I would chop the bell pepper and Canadian bacon. Also, we thought that it needed a little more egg. Overall, we liked this and I would make it again. Good luck in the contest.
