Make

  1. Heat oven to 400F / 204C degrees.
  2. While oven heats, whisk together balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Add bell peppers, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Toss everything to combine. Season with some salt and pepper. Refrigerate vegetables until ready to serve.
  3. Heat up a skillet over medium heat. Add in cooking oil and then mushrooms and saute until mushrooms are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add sausage and saute, breaking apart until sausage is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes more.
  4. Pour in eggs. Stir to combine everything and then transfer to oven. Cook for 18 to 22 minutes, until a knife comes out cleanly.
  5. Slice frittata and serve with pesto spooned over top. Enjoy with marinated summer vegetables on the side.
