Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Add chopped onion and bell pepper; sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Add crumbled sausage to the skillet; cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until combined.

Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables in the skillet.

Sprinkle cheddar cheese evenly on top.

Cook on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the frittata is set and lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
