Ingredients
- 10 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream

- Over medium heat, brown the sausage, breaking up as you go. When the sausage is nearly cooked through add the chopped peppers and saute 3-4 minutes until tender.

Notes
- I used a heat proof 9-inch cast iron skillet for this recipe. You can also use a 9 inch pie pan if you prefer. Be sure to prepare whatever dish you use by greasing it so the frittata does not stick.
