Frittata With Leftovers

I was pleased with how last night's supper turned out.

First, I browned together in a large skillet:

1 1/4 lb ground turkey
1 onion
1/2 green pepper
2 T. coconut oil
salt and pepper, or other seasonings, to taste
(I used Penzey's Northwoods Seasoning , my lastest go-to spice)

When that was browned, I added

1 c. leftover cooked corn
Leftover French fries and steak fries from Sunday night's dinner out, cut up (probably about the equivalent of 2 cooked potatoes)
1 c. shredded cheese

When that was all mixed together, I added 10 eggs, well blended.  I made sure everything was smooshed under the egg mixture, and baked it for about 1/2 hour at 350.

I could have mostly cooked it on top of the stove, and then put it in the oven for about 10 minutes to set.  But, I had to leave the house for a little while, and I wanted it to cook while I was gone.  We ate it with salsa on top.

This can be a very versatile recipe, depending on what type of leftover vegetables or meats you might want to use up.
