My MIL gave me some chard so I decided to use some in this recipe. I scaled it down for just me and my husband and did a version of this as scrambled eggs. He loved it and I am still not sure how I feel about chard. Anyway, there are a lot of great flavors going on here. I think we will be making this again. Good healthy stuff! Made for my Babes for ZWT4.

I cut the ingredients in half for a breakfast for 2 & used most of the mushrooms on just half of the frittata! Also used the mild sausage, although another time I might just go for the sweeter ones! VERY TASTY & MOST ENJOYABLE! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed during the Zingo part of the Zaar World Tour 4]

This was a lovely meal. I cooked the sausages more, used cabbage instead of swiss chard (which I cooked) & only used 5 eggs & 3/4 cup milk, then assembled & cooked the frittata on the stove. Put under the griller/broiler for a few minutes at then end to finish cooking. Thanks sassafrasnanc for sharing this keeper.
