Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 3 green onions thinly sliced
- 6 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 lices Bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup Monterey jack cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Add the butter to an 8-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Saute the green onion until tender, about 3 minutes.
- While the onions cook, beat the eggs with the milk in a small bowl. Stir in the salt and pepper.
- When the onions are tender, pour the egg mixture to the pan. Stir in the parsley and crumbled bacon.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes, lifting the edges of the egg mixture to allow uncooked mixture to flow underneath.
- When eggs are beginning to set but still very soft, remove the pan from the heat and swirl the sour cream on the top. Sprinkle with the cheese.
- Place in the oven for about 6-8 minutes or until the frittata is puffed and golden.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with additional parsley, if desired.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes
- Instead of bacon, you can substitute almost any protein of your choosing. Ham, sausage, and leftover roasted chicken are always great.
- Change the cheese if you like. Gruyere or Swiss are great choices, as are cheddar, Parmesan, and feta.
