Cooking 101: So Easy Skillet Frittata

1. PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Beat eggs and cream cheese with a wire whisk until it’s well blended. Set aside for now.

2. SPRAY a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add the red and green peppers to the skillet and cook and stir for 2 min. or until they’re crisp-tender.

3. ADD bacon, 3/4 cup of the shredded cheese and the cilantro to the egg mixture; stir it all up until it’s well blended. Add this mixture to the ingredients in the skillet; stir.

4. COVER skillet with a lid. Reduce heat to low and cook for 6 to 8 min. or until the egg mixture is almost set in the center. Remove lid.

5. PLACE the skillet in the oven. Bake for 5 min. or until the center is set. Remove from oven. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded cheese and cover with lid. Let it stand for 2 min

6. LOOSEN frittata from side of skillet with spatula and slide onto serving plate. Cut into wedges to serve. Makes 6 servings, 1 wedge each.

KEEPING IT SAFE: If you don’t have a skillet with an oven-proof handle, you can make it oven-proof by wrapping the handle with aluminum foil before placing in the oven.
