Lazy Frittata
Make an omelette, but instead of cooking the eggs and putting in the filling at the end, put the filling into the pan and pour the egg over the filling. Cover and cook as per usual for an omelette. No, this won't be as good as an actual frittata, but when you're being lazy, the additional effort isn't worth the improvement. It's like when I don't feel like making a salad. No making a salad isn't that great an effort, but throwing a bag of frozen peas into the microwave is so much easier.
Caution with Lazy Frittatas: watch the moisture content of the filling, tomatoes in particular. Just add the wet stuff toward the end of the cooking process.
