Turkey Bacon Wrapped Frittata
What you’ll need…

12 3-inch ramekins
36 pieces turkey bacon
4 tablespoons olive oil or butter
4 shallots, chopped fine
2 small bags baby arugula (or spinach)
12 eggs
2 cups grated Gruyere cheese
Salt and black pepper to taste

Get started…
1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2.  Prepare ramekins by brushing insides with olive oil or spraying with nonstick spray. Wrap 2 pieces of bacon around inside of each ramekin, closing all gaps around the sides. Cut the remaining 12 pieces of bacon in half. Place 2 of these pieces in the bottom of each ramekin, covering all gaps.
3.  Heat a large saute pan on high, add olive oil or butter, add shallots, and reduce heat to medium. Gently cook shallots until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add arugula to pan and cook until wilted. Remove arugula from pan and allow to cool. Squeeze out any excess water with you hands.
4.  Combine eggs, Gruyere, and arugula. Season with salt and pepper. (Remember that the cheese will add some salt of its own.) Fill each ramekin three-quarters full and bake until eggs are set and tops are golden and puffed, about 20 minutes.
5.  Remove bacon and eggs from ramekins while hot, using towels to prevent burning yourself. Serve immediately, as eggs will lose volume as they sit.
