Make
- Preheat oven to 400F (204C) degrees.
- Heat up an oven-safe pan like a skillet over medium heat. Add in coconut (or cooking) oil and then onions to heated oil with a dash of salt. Saute for about 3 to 5 minutes, until softened. Next add in mushrooms, sausage, and romesco sauce and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, to let mushrooms soften.
- Pour in eggs and then top with green onions. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until a knife comes out clean.
- While frittata is cooking, whisk together garlic, Dijon, vinegar, and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Toss with mixed greens and serve with frittata. Drizzle with more romesco sauce if you want (and have some left).

Tasted fine without romesco sauce. I would keep extra eggs handy in case there's too much filling.
0 HelpfulI added broccoli because I had some left over and it was great. This is really easy to make early in the week to have for quick lunches or breakfast.
0 HelpfulFamily (husband, 4 year old boy, 2 year old boy, and 8 month old daughter) all loved it! The boys aren't fans of mushrooms, but they ate around it. My husband said it would be a favorite meal if we added a scoop of guacamole and sour cream on top of the frittata with romesco sauce. We also didn't make the salad; instead, I served roasted parmesan sweet potatoes with it. Look forward to doing this again.
0 HelpfulWe make frittatas like this fairly often, and usually use a cornbread base as a "crust". We went crustless this time and used a pre-packaged chicken sausage. We didn't use the romesco sauce because it was too garlicky (I added way too much garlic, definitely a user error issue) and by week end we were over it.
0 HelpfulDelicious! We used an Italian Chicken sausage which was very yummy. I did not like the garlic dressing the last time we made it so I subbed a boysenberry balsamic dressing and added pears.
