Hey there strong people!
Hope you all are having a great week! One of the things I often hear from friends, family, clients, and so many other people how hard it is to eat a solid breakfast. A crustless quiche or frittata is the perfect breakfast if you are having a hard time cooking in the mornings because let’s face it, mornings can get crazy! A frittata is also perfect for a brunch when hosting a larger group.
I wanted to make a fun frittata that didn’t just have the traditional ingredients and I had pizza on my mind. Honestly, if you have eggs, veggies, and some sort of meat you can pull this recipe off. I am currently doing a whole30 otherwise a little goat cheese wouldn’t hurt! Feel free to add some!
Also, back to the whole30, most Italian sausages have added sugar which is why I used plain ground pork. Normally, I would have used 1 pound of Italian sausage since it has more flavors. Feel free to up the spices a bit more from what I added if you too are using plain ground pork.
Enjoy!
