Delicious! This quick and easy frittata was a huge hit at breakfast this morning. I made as written except that I added 1/8 tsp. baking powder to the egg/ half-and-half mixture before pouring over the other ingredients. I always do this as it makes for fluffier eggs. I cooked and baked this in a 12" cast iron skillet. I served this topped with salsa. Next time, I might add some fresh mushrooms, cheese, and ham. Thank you for sharing this keeper recipe.

This was quite good on its own, but I've made it twice now and liked it better the second time. I used more bacon, just shy of the full pound, 9 large eggs & no salt. Like someone else, I didn't bother with any stove top cooking and just baked the whole thing in the oven. I think my pan was a little larger, it took a little over 20 minutes to be done.
