Turkey and Zucchini Frittata

Who could use more one dish meals?  Me!  With school starting, I've been thinking of filling, nutritious and fast breakfast ideas.  This morning, I came up with this.

Turkey and Zucchini Frittata
3 Tbsp butter, divided (I like Kerrygold)
1 lb ground turkey
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp basil
1/8 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
dash cayenne pepper
1 zucchini, sliced in 1/4 inch slices
6 eggs
salt and pepper
6-8 fresh chives, chopped
hot sauce (not necessary, but highly recommended!)

Preheat oven to 350.  In an oven safe skillet, fry turkey and onion in 1 Tbsp butter.  Add garlic salt, oregano, basil, lemon pepper and cayenne.  Scramble eggs in a medium size bowl.  Season with salt & pepper.  Add cooked turkey to eggs and combine.  Add remaining 2 Tbsp of butter to skillet.  Cook zucchini in a single layer for a couple minutes on each side.  Spread egg and turkey mixture over the top of the zucchini and level with a spatula.  Sprinkle with fresh chives.  Bake for about 12 minutes until eggs are cooked.  Serve right side up or upside down.  Drizzle hot sauce on top & devour quickly.  :)

Don't forget the hot sauce!  Even my grade schoolers put it on theirs!
