Some of you all saw the photo I posted on Facebook of my sausage and cheese frittata and you loved it! Â I'm sure you thought I forgot about posting the recipe, but no worries, here it is...finally. Â I got a little distracted using all the goodies I received from OXO. Â They sent me 3 new kitchen gadgets specifically designed for eggs. Â If you do any sort of baking, the Egg Separator is perfect because it sits on the edge of the bowl, catches the yolk and lets the white run through. Â The OXO Omelet Spatula is one of my all time favorite utensils. Â It has a wide, flexible surface so that you can easily get underneath the food and allows you to flip your masterpiece like a pro. Â Everyone in the family agrees that our favorite is the Egg Beater. Â Old school goes modern with a great enhancement - the comfort grip handle snaps off so you can just drop the beaters in the dishwasher for clean up...love it! Â

So, now you see why I've been a little behind on sharing about the frittata. Â I had to ~~test,~~Â have some fun with my new kitchen helpers. Â OXO makes great products for the kitchen and these 3 are welcome additions to my Â OXO collection.Â

Â You can pick up all three of these at Bed, Bath & Beyond and at Target. Â Make sure to let me know how you use your new egg utensils. Â I'll share more later on other ways I've found to use the egg beater...

Getting ready for a beautiful frittata made with fresh local eggs. Â All I have to do is press the little gray button on the egg beater and clean up is a snap!
