Broccoli and Spinach Frittata

April 7, 2015 by Keri 33 Comments

Start your day off right with a protein-packed frittata full of veggies! This make ahead breakfast option is perfect throughout the week for a quick meal or snack. Piece of FrittataI hope you all had a fantastic weekend and Easter! I had planned on posting Sunday, but I got caught up in the day and never got around to it. We had brunch in the morning and then went for ice cream in the afternoon for dessert. I made Kyle go for a walk with me since the weather was nice and I needed to work off that sundae I had! 

I’ve said before how much I love breakfast food, but never usually eat it during normal breakfast hours. The main reason for that is because I hate cooking as soon as I wake up. I like to welcome the day with a calm few minutes to myself that don’t involve messing up my kitchen. I try really hard to plan a make-ahead option that I can make on Sunday to have throughout the week, but most times I get caught up in other things and forget. That means Kyle is usually the one making breakfast!

When I do remember to make something ahead, it’s usually always a frittata of some kind. This broccoli and spinach version is one of our favorites. It’s so fresh and filling and is perfect topped with some cheddar and salsa. Broccoli and Spinach FrittataFrittatas are a great option for a make ahead breakfast because you can eat them hot, at room temperature, or cold. You can also do any vegetable combination that you like! It’s one of those recipes that you can “clean out” your fridge with and add whatever veggies, meats, and cheeses you want to use up. We love topping this version with a pineapple mango salsa that we get from Costco – it’s so good! Target’s Archer Farms brand also has a great pineapple peach salsa that works well with this too. FrittataThis recipe uses 10 eggs, so I cut the frittata into 10 wedges. One is enough for me in the morning along with a piece of fruit. It also makes a great snack when you come home starving and need something to hold you over before dinner!

Frittatas are also perfect for brunch – serve it alongside some breakfast potatoes and fresh fruit (and a mimosa).

No matter how you serve your frittata, it will be fantastic. It’s such a great way to start the day and get some veggies in!Vegetable Frittata

      It’s funny you say that – I went through about 3 different frittatas before getting one that looked good enough to post. They are difficult to photograph! Oh, and salsa is must for frittatas in our house – no matter what veggie combo I do we always top it with salsa – it’s so good! Thanks Mariah πŸ™‚

    This frittata looks delicious! Breakfast is not my favorite meal of the day for sure, but I do love frittatas! It reminds me of the movie Morning Glory (you should totally see that if you haven’t) ;). Anyway, yours looks so yummy! I love adding broccoli into anything I can – it’s one of my favorite vegetables.
