Whoever was the first person to eat brunch or brinner – they were genious.  I love eating breakfast foods at different times of the day – other than breakfast of course.

And if you are trying to watch your carb intake – then this is a perfect recipe for you!

Eggs and vegetables – great combination
Ingredients
  • 1 head of broccoli, chopped and roasted (in directions below)
  • 1 handful of fresh baby spinach
  • 7 eggs
  • 1/3 cup whole milk plus 2 T whole milk
  • 3/4 cup sharp cheddar, grated
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
Instructions
  1. Before you make the frittata, you have to roast the broccoli. This is my favorite way to eat broccoli. Chop one head of broccoli, using the florets, spread out on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Roast at 425 for 20 minutes. Let cool.
  2. Whisk together eggs, milk, spices, and mustard.
  3. Add in vegetables and cheese.
  4. Bake in a pie pan (I have a deep dish one) for 30-35 minutes at 350.
  5. Eat with fruit or other breakfast-y items.
