Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Mushrooms: Clean and slice the mushrooms.

- Scallions: Chop the scallions.
- Bacon: Chop the bacon strips into small pieces.
- In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.

- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped scallions and cooked bacon pieces. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
- Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste (optional).
- Pour the egg mixture over the cooked vegetables and bacon in the skillet.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is golden brown.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for a few minutes.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm.
Tips:
- Use fresh, quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Cook the bacon until crispy for added texture and flavor.
- Pre-cook the vegetables to reduce moisture and enhance their flavors.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to achieve a fluffy texture.
- Allow the frittata to cool slightly before cutting to help it set and make slicing easier.
- Consider adding other herbs and spices to suit your taste preferences.
