Hi friends!
In honor of the long weekend ahead, I wanted to share a quick and easy recipe that works for breakfast or brunch (or whenever you like to eat eggs). I like to whip this veggie frittata up with whatever vegetables I have on hand, cut it up and have it for healthy breakfasts all week. However, this is also a great entertaining dish when making brunch. I used zucchini, tomatoes, peppers, & spinach in this one. However, you can use just about any veggies, meat, and/or cheese you like. For example, tomatoes + basil + mozzarella would be a delicious option. So would bacon or ham & cheese, or a variety of mushrooms. Seriously the varieties are endless, you just have to get creative.
This veggie frittata is also a great way to use leftovers…
This veggie frittata is a great way to use leftovers. Of course you can use fresh veggies but you can also reheat some leftover veggies from the night before, which is what I did here. I reheated the veggies in a sauté pan, added fresh spinach, cooked until it was wilted and then added the eggs. Check out the full recipe below. Learn how to make an avocado rose < here >
