Grab and go protein for busy mornings
This simple recipe is easy to make for a moderately busy morning or make it the night before when you know you have a time crunch the next morning.
If you follow a low-carb or ketogenic diet these frittatas will fit perfectly into your plan. The best thing about them is they're easily customized. Eggs are just the base, you can add almost any variation of ingredients you like to this for a totally new recipe each time. Add different greens, add some meat, even throw in a little cheese if it's part of your plan.
The extra spices are optional because these are good on their own, but if you spend the extra few more minutes they’ll be even tastier.
