Pizza Pasta Frittata

Yum
I love breakfast items that I can make in large batches and reheat in the morning. Anything to make the rush before school easier is a winner in my book and this easy Pizza Pasta Frittata is perfect for slicing and quickly reheating especially during those first few weeks of school when the alarm is going off way too early and we’re still not quite in our routine yet.
I don’t know about you but spaghetti and hot dogs are the two things in my house that never equal out. I’ve always got 2 extra buns or only a cup of spaghetti after the sauce or dogs are gone and I’m never one to throw away food so this dish is something that came out of necessity and turned into something that is requested pretty frequently.
If you're not familiar with frittatas, all it is is a baked omelette loaded with yummy ingredients. This time it's spaghetti and alllllll the supreme pizza toppings! Pepperoni, olives, mushroom, onion, bell pepper and 2 cheeses!
My kids, lucky for me, are not picky at all and will generally eat almost anything put in front of them. I know many out there deal with picky eaters and this recipe is totally customizable for that! If your kiddos don’t like olives, leave them off- no problem! Is your typical pizza order meat lovers instead of supreme? Cool, swap the veggies for some Canadian bacon and Italian sausage. Need a vegetarian option? Gotcha - swap the pepperoni for some steamed chopped broccoli or asparagus. The possibilities are endless!!
Pizza Pasta Frittata
1 1/2 cups cooked spaghetti noodles
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
20 pepperoni
2 Tablespoons chopped red onion
2 Tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup sliced black olives
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan
8 eggs
1/2 cup half and half
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed quarter sheet pan with parchment paper and spray generously with olive oil cooking spray.

Evenly spread the spaghetti on top of the parchment. Top with the mushrooms, pepperoni, red onion, green bell pepper, black olives, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, half and half, garlic salt
and black pepper. Pour the mixture evenly over the pan and place in the oven for 20 minutes, turning the pan halfway through for even baking.

Remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

Makes 8 servings
