Have you started planning the menu for your Thanksgiving dinner? Are you looking for some dynamite dessert recipes that will satisfy your guests' collective sweet tooth? Be sure to check out this amazing round-up of 50 Thanksgiving dessert recipes on Taste As You Go! This post was updated with new links and photos in November 2021. Ahhhh...  November.  I have been waiting for you (and all that you bring) for months . Specifically, I have been counting down to that glorious day spent with family and loved ones around a long table packed to the gills with platters and bowls of comfort food and happy memories. Of course, I'm talking about Thanksgiving. This year, we're spending the holiday with my family in Connecticut and I. Cannot. Wait. You better believe I'm going to use my pregnancy as an excuse to eat three full plates of food plus  five slices of whatever we've got going on at the dessert end of the meal! (Because I'm eating for two, right??) In

Steak and Potato Frittata

Steak and Potato Frittata | Taste As You Go

For someone who loves eggs, I'm embarrassed to admit that it wasn't until very recently that I made my first frittata at home. I don't know whether it was the intimidating sound of the name of the dish that prevented me from experimenting with frittatas or the very simple fact that I didn't own an oven-proof skillet (don't judge me)... Whatever the reason, the situation seems so silly now.

What the heck was I waiting for?

One of the brilliant things about a frittata is its versatility. Although it's made with eggs, a frittata is appropriate for any meal. Obviously, it makes a fantastic option for breakfast or brunch, but, if you serve the frittata with some fresh fruit or a side salad, then it can also make a simple lunch or dinner. You can even make a frittata ahead of time and then slice and serve it whenever you want.

As for what you put into a frittata, the sky's the limit! You can alter your ingredients to suit your personal tastes, just as you would with an omelet. (Though, you won't need to worry about folding the eggs properly with a frittata.) And, if you have any leftover meat or vegetables in your refrigerator, then a frittata is the perfect way to repurpose those leftovers into something new.

That's exactly what I did with the grilled flank steak and roasted potatoes that I put into this frittata... And it was a hit!

What are your favorite frittata (or omelet) ingredients?
