Stir in the bell peppers, and cook for another 2 minutes until the bell peppers just start to soften.

Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Meanwhile in a bowl, whisk together eggs and milks until well blended.

Stir in the cheese.

Season with hot sauce, salt and black pepper.

Pour the egg-milk mixture into the skillet, and cook over medium heat for about 3 to 4 minutes, until the edges are almost set.

Reduce heat to medium-low or low, cover the skillet, and continue to cook for another 8 to 10 minutes until the frittata is set.

Meanwhile preheat the broil, broil the frittata for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the top is slightly browned.

Remove the skillet from the oven (be careful that the skillet is very hot, so use kitchen towel or gloves)
