Green Eggs and Ham Frittata
1 ripe avocado diced
6 eggs
¼ cup half and half or (1/8 cup milk 1/8 cup heavy cream)
2 tablespoons butter separated
2 tablespoons basil olive oil separated
¼ cup diced onions
¼ cup Canadian bacon
¼ cup colored bell peppers (I used mini peppers here)
½ cup Swiss or emmental cheese grated
Sundried tomatoes for garnish
(save the salt there's plenty in the cheese and ham) Pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 375⁰ F.  Sauté the onions, ham and peppers in butter and oil over medium heat until tender. Crake eggs in medium bowl add avocado and cream and blend well.  Add mix to pan and allow to cook 7 to 8 minutes.  Check sides for done around edges.   Place the pan in the oven for 7 to 15 minutes until golden brown on top.  OR if you have 2 pans the same size you may continue as follows:
 In a second pan over medium heat add the remaining oil and butter.  Coat the pan when hot and pour the mix over the egg mix evenly.  Place the second pan over the egg pan and carefully flip.  Allow to cook for 5 minutes more and slide onto plate, garnish, and serve.
