Hey! It’s Friday! You know what that means, right? It means that it is time to eat breakfast for din din!
Truth be told, we really do eat breakfast for dinner on Fridays. It’s quick, (that’s very important), always delicious, (just as important), and we can all agree on a meal with eggs, including our 11-month old.
When I was selected for the Breakfast After Dark campaign with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!, I knew exactly what I was going to make; Smoked Sausage and Feta Cheese Frittata. This meal is all kinds of awesome. Seriously. And, let’s be frank, it has been long enough since we last talked about feta cheese – I was starting to miss it!
I decided to dice up some of that smoked sausage I bought from the deli and give it a little love, in combination with feta cheese and eggs! We have always enjoyed eating this type of sausage with eggs, either on the side or scrambled in.
Apart from spreading this delicious buttery spread all over my toast, I also like to cook with it. In this case, I used it to cook the sausage. When a recipe calls for butter or oil, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! works just as well. AND, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! has 70% less saturated fat than butter, no hydrogenated oils and it is made from a blend of vegetable oils. Their products are also gluten free.
After watching the beautiful Lisa Vanderpump and that hot chef, Dustin, cook up a Veggie Frittata, I thought I should definitely include my Frittata in this post and show you how versatile I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! really is.
Grab that skillet because dinner will be ready in 15 minutes!
ENJOY!

YUM! Your frittata looks amazing! Love that you added smoked sausages I’d do that too. I always have problem with this butter when I have to cook something like this. The food tends to stick to the pan… so when we buy this once in a while I only use for bread etc… maybe my method is wrong. xD

Breakfast for dinner is the bomb! I especially love frittatas. Anything can go in them and they’re delicious!
Nancy P.@thebittersideofsweet says
Frittatas are so italian which means we have them often in our house! Mostly for lunch. Love the combination of the feta and sausage.

Mmm… perfect looking meal for breakfast or lunch… or dinner. 🙂

I would probably use kielbasa or polish sausage but the rest of the meal …yes please, may I have some more. 🙂
Feta cheese stirred into just barely set eggs and then almost immediately served with a big chunk of freshly made (or brought home from the bakery) crusty bread is one of my favourite brunch meals so transforming the dish into dinner with some sausages is a great idea.
Valerie says
I’d eat this breakfast for dinner all day – every day. (So much better than my “brinners” of soggy, sad cereal.) 😀
Nancy R says
Aahhh……along with char-grilled peppers, this reminds me of my childhood. Breakfast for dinner, yes please! 🙂
