  1. Is there another way to make something similar I do not have any oven safe pans, but I would love to make Any Frittata. Help!

    I just let mine stay in the skillet and eat it when it is cooked through. Sometimes, it stays runny on the top longer but I like it like that. :)

  3. I usually cover the frittata with a lid after it’s done on the bottom, take it off the heat, and let it sit a few minutes. That way it doesn’t need to be broiled but it does set on top.

  4. Would this frittata stay good for a day or two? Could you reheat it for breakfast the day after making it?
