JAIME JO'S SAUSAGE DIP

- 3 cream cheese
- 1 hot breakfast sausage
- 1 can of rotel

Broccoli Frittata

INGREDIENTS
2 cups broccoli florets (from 1 large or 2 small heads)½ cup low-sodium chicken stock
4 large eggs*
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
1 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated
½ tablespoon olive oil

PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a small, oven-safe skillet, bring the chicken stock to a simmer. Add broccoli florets and cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is cooked al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess liquid, transfer the broccoli florets to a small bowl, and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the kosher salt and pepper until they’re thoroughly beaten and starting to bubble slightly. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
Wipe the skillet with a paper towel or clean kitchen cloth. Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until the whites start to soften, about a minute. Add steamed broccoli and spread it evenly over the bottom of the pan then pour in the egg mixture.
Put the skillet in the preheated oven and cook until the eggs are cooked through and don’t jiggle when you shake the skillet, about 10 minutes.
