Taco Frittata

There have been a lot of recipes coming through a number of great paleo resources on Twitter, I wouldn't consider myself a great paleo resource, but thought I would join in the recipe distribution! We typically have a frittata of some sort during the week for dinner, tonight's was one of my favorites. Here's the details:

Taco Frittata
1/2 lb ground beef (I typically use 1 lb, and recently started using grass fed beef)
1/2 cup onion (or more if you like)
1/2 packaged of taco seasoning of your choice, more if you use 1 lb beef (trial and error will give you the best results to your tastes - I don't like too much taco seasoning) I prefer Penzey's Taco Seasoning - not as salty
1/4 cup water for 1/2lb beef, 1/2 for 1lb beef
10 eggs (my default for frittatas is 6 whole eggs, 4 whites)
1 cup cheddar cheese (optional - listing the full recipe here has FYI)
Salsa

Brown meat with onion in a 10in skillet. Drain. Add taco seasoning and water, simmer for 2 minutes. Beat eggs and pour over meat mixture. Cover pan and turn heat to low. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until eggs are set. Sprinkle with cheese if you are using it, top with your favorite salsa and serve it up!!

This ends up being a pretty solid frittata and re-heats well the next day.

Enjoy!
