beautiful slice of vegetable frittata with tomato rose
When it comes to breakfast I love anything with eggs and lots of fresh seasonal vegetables. A hearty, healthy breakfast will set you up for a success no matter what day it. This is a simple and delicious recipe that’s perfect on a lazy morning and just as nice for a beautiful Sunday brunch with your family or girlfriends. It’s also fabulous as a light dinner served with a kale or arugula salad.
I select organic ingredients as much as possible for a power breakfast that’s a good for my family as it is scrumptious.
Choose the roasted vegetables of your choice and have fun!

I am so bad about eating breakfast! But this looks soooo good!! I think I will give it a try!! Thanks for sharing!
Breakfast is probably the most skipped meal of all, especially for busy moms… but it’s truly the most important meal of the day for you and your little ones… This frittata gives you clean energy that helps you mom, get everything done, and your kids be their best in school. Let me know how it goes 🙂
We have breakfast for dinner often here and this looks perfect for that. I have the perfect cast iron to cook it in to.
I love having breakfast for dinner Melissa and this frittata is perfect! I love it for a light lunch served with a mixed salad. Yum!
true. even me i skipped breakfast sometimes because of school i need to hurry up fast
It’s so easy to skip breakfast yet so important not to Mark. Breakfast is the best way to kickstart our metabolism and get our mind focused and clear.
Wow does this look good. Thanks for sharing. I pinned.
Thank you Sandra! Enjoy 🙂
This looks like it would be very great in the morning. I am going to try this.
Enjoy Jerry!
I rarely eat breakfast…living alone..but this wonderful dish (though it takes about 25 minutes) could be frozen and eaten over some days…a definite winner..thank you
Absolutely Ronald! My sister travels a lot and often prepares this ahead of time and wraps it in individual servings she can take along with her so she knows she always has a healthy breakfast. It also makes a fabulous lunch or light dinner 🙂
looks like a great breakfast idea!!!!
It is absolutely scrumptious Alicia 🙂
Looks so good and easy to make. I like my eggs for breakfast and this would make them tastier!
This is a great breakfast recipe Jodi, and if you are pressed for time you can prepare it ahead of time, cut it into single servings and freeze those individually so you can warm up just what you need, when you need it. I always prefer my eggs freshly cooked but this is second best when time is tight.
This recipe looks good even though I am not a vegetable lover.
Oh it’s fabulous Terry, although I am a veggie fanatic lol. You’ll find that the sausage gives this frittata a lot of flavor and disguises the veggies quite well. Enjoy!
Mmm!!! This sounds delicious and I love the addition of sausage!! yay for added protein!! I am always up for a protein filled brunch!! Especially before a day of fun activities!
My sister has a way of making simple dishes sooo tasty! She trained as a chef in Paris for a few years but I think she also has a gift 🙂 Enjoy!
This sounds so good!!! Thank you for sharing the recipe! I can’t wait to try it!
You are most welcome Terri. Enjoy!
