Tomato Corn Potato Sausage Pesto Frittata - this is perfect for breakfast or brunch ~ full of summer produce, healthy and delicious

This past Saturday, I made this hearty frittata for my family. I had announced the night before that I had an 11:00 appointment so if anyone wanted to breakfast, they’d need to be up by 10:00. Sure enough, the fear of not having anything to eat was enough to get everyone out of bed.

Frittatas are a great way to use up all the bits and pieces in your refrigerator and take advantage of all the summer vegetables that are in season – in this case, I had a jar of Garlic Scape Paste and Kale Mint Basil Pesto, and an ear of leftover cooked corn. I had sampled a Spanish tortilla at the farmer’s market a few weeks ago made with eggs, potato and onion, so I added a potato into this frittata too.

If you have a farmer’s market nearby, I highly recommend visiting and walking around from stand to stand. Choose whatever appeals to you.

Here are some farm fresh vegetables you might like to add to your frittata:

  • cherry tomatoes
  • summer squash (saute briefly)
  • zucchini (saute briefly)
  • bell peppers (red, green, purple)
  • broccoli (leftover stir-fry broccoli would be nice)
  • cauliflower (leftover roasted cauliflower would be great)
  • asparagus (leftover roasted asparagus would be perfect)
  • spinach
  • kale (saute briefly)
  • Swiss chard (saute briefly)

This Tomato Corn Potato Sausage Pesto Frittata is hearty, perfect for brunch, and is a great way to enjoy all the fresh summer produce we’re enjoying right now. Feel free to substitute other fresh vegetables you might find at the farmer’s market.

    I’d get out of bed for that frittata too! I’ve never thought to add corn to a frittata- I bet it adds a great texture. Pinning to make!

    Haha, I’m with Alice–can’t believe everyone sleeps in til 10! Looks like you whipped up a delicious meal for the family! I’ve never explored packing potatoes in a frittata before, but it sounds like such a great idea!
