Ingredients
- 5 large eggs
- ½ pound cooked ham more or less
- ¾ cup cheese freshly grated, I used Queso de Bola (an Edam cheese)
- ½ medium red bell pepper (or 1 small chopped)
- ½ medium green bell pepper (or 1 small chopped)
- ¾ cup mozzarella cheese freshly grated
- olive oil for frying the ham
- salt & pepper to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne powder optional
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven at 350°.
- In a pan, fry the ham for 2 to 3 minutes each side. Allow for oil to drip and cool then dice.
- Beat eggs, add cooked ham, green & red bell pepper, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Add cayenne for a little heat and mix together.
- Arrange mini cupcake silicon molds in a baking tray.
- Pour the egg mixture, leaving about a bit of space. Sprinkle grated mozzarella. To add more color on top, add a piece of ham and red & green bell pepper.
- Bake for 5 to 8 minutes or until eggs are cooked. Insert a toothpick at the center to test if no egg clings. To avoid burning the top, opt to cover with foil.
- Allow silicon molds to cool for 1 to 2 minutes or use tongs to flip the mini cupcake silicon molds into a serving plate.
- Enjoy these bite sized Ham & Cheese Frittatas!
