I have a long relationship with easy, convenient breakfasts. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always mean that I’m eating the best food to start my day. All too often, the convenient choice is not the one that is good for you.
That’s why I created this easy mini frittata recipe. It’s a great recipe to make in advance so you can grab and go in the morning. Even better, it’s lean and full of nutrients, giving you the perfect start to the day.
And even better still? They fill you up so there are no nagging hunger pangs before it’s time for lunch!
Quick breakfast recipe
These mini frittatas don’t take a lot of time or effort to make. Just twenty minutes hands-on time and the rest in the oven.
And since they last in the fridge, they can be made in advance and eaten through the week. Pop them in a microwave and you’ve got a nutritious breakfast. You can even grab them and eat them on the go since they are baked in a muffin tin and perfectly portable.
How can something simple and so good for you be delicious? I’ll tell you how – eggs, tiny bit of ham, kale sautéed with garlic and sun-dried tomatoes – that’s how!
To make them, lightly cook the sun-dried tomatoes and garlic for a minute over low heat. Then add the kale and steam for five minutes longer.
While that is happening, whisk the eggs with ham, salt and pepper. When the other ingredients are done, take them off the heat and add them to the egg mixture.
Divide them evenly in twelve muffin tins and add to a preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes and enjoy a weeks worth of breakfasts!
