Mini Egg Frittatas
Inspired by a recipe that can be found at http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Muffin-Frittatas/Detail.aspx. Many of us struggle to get in a good breakfast, especially when you are trying to keep to a paleo food plan. It is hard to avoid cereals and pop tarts, our mornings are so hectic. Try this recipe - except for the cheese it is a caveman's friend!
6 eggs
½ Almond Milk
¼ teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded cheese
¾ cup diced zucchini
¼ cup diced red pepper
Heat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat the eggs, stir in the Almond Milk, season with salt and pepper. Add the cheese, zucchini, bell pepper and onion; mix well.
Spoon evenly into 12 greased muffin cups, about 1/4 cup each.
Bake in 350 degrees F oven until just set, 20 to 22 minutes. Cool on rack 5 minutes. Remove from cups; serve warm.
You eat with your eyes, then your nose, finally your mouth. Substitute any veggies you want, just chop ‘em up small. Keep the colors lively, that is why the recipe used red pepper instead of green. Tomatoes might work too, but they have a high water content so you may need to adjust the recipe and / or cook time if you choose to go that route. Sauteed onion and mushrooms would be great!
For ease in the morning, consider making these ahead of time, but reduce the cook time a bit. Heat to serve warm and finish the cooking.
