Turkey Sausage Frittata Recipe Tips and Subs
You can swap out ingredients for your egg bites with a variety of ingredients depending on what your family likes and what you have on hand.
- First of all, I used JennieO turkey sausage, but you can substitute with a turkey or pork sausage, or ham if you prefer.
- I used goat cheese and a cheddar Colby mix. You can use your favorite cheese or what you have on hand. I prefer to grate cheese myself rather than purchase pre-shredded cheese. Pre-shredded cheese is coated in corn starch, which may affect the taste and texture of your recipe.
- Also, I roasted cauliflower and mushrooms in the oven before adding them to the egg mixture. You can saute them on the stove if you prefer. Cooking them before adding them to the egg mixture pulls out some of the water and prevents your egg cups from being soggy.
- You may also substitute your favorite vegetables. Spinach, bell peppers, broccoli, and green onions would all make great frittata muffins.
- In addition, liberally spray your muffin tins with olive oil spray. When your frittata muffins are done, wait 5 minutes before running a knife around the edges and removing them from the pan.
How do I store Turkey Sausage Frittata Cups?
- They will last 5 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
- To reheat, microwave about 30 seconds (depending on your microwave) or wrap in foil and heat in the oven.
- Finally, I use Wilton 12-Cup Regular Muffin Pans. This recipe makes 18 muffins.
