Last week I mentioned that while I was doing my meal prep I tried making a frittata recipe that I created on my own using the ingredients I had been using in my breakfasts. This has been a huge time saver this week. It takes less than a minute to heat up breakfast and there is no cutting up veggies every day or cleaning pans. You do it all once early in the week and then you don’t have to worry about it anymore.
You can really modify this however you like! I found that the bacon really gives it a nice flavor (especially by leaving the fat in the pan as you cook the veggies).
Ingredients:
6 eggs
3-4 pieces bacon
1-2 sweet potatos
spinach
another other veggies, like broccoli or peppers
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375
- Cook the bacon in a cast iron skillet
- Remove the bacon and cut into bite sized peices
- Cube the sweet potatoes and add to the pan; cook until soft
- Add any other veggies to the pan and cook until soft
- Beat the eggs in a bowl, then pour over the veggies in the pan
- Let the eggs cook for a few minutes, until the edges start to brown
- Place the cast iron skillet in the oven for 15 minutes or until eggs are cooked through
Enjoy!
What are some ingredients you like to put in your eggs?

These are a must when there’s no time in he morning! Or for after a long run when you don’t want to do anything but eat. You can make one out of anything and it always sees to work out 🙂 plus I love frying things in bacon fat so this looks like a good one 🙂
Yes- this was actually perfect when I got home from my race yesterday and didn’t feel like cooking but knew I needed to eat!
Great idea, and looks delicious! I will definitely have to try this recipe.
I hope you like it! Also, I realized yesterday I ran past Rodgers Forge in the Charles St 12 miler!
Looks soooooo good. Although I rarely do, I really like sweet potatoes in my eggs, and asparagus. And then tarragon and dijon mustard. Delicious. And yes to bacon, always.
I’ve never tried any of that stuff in my eggs, but sweet potatoes and asparagus are 2 of my favorite foods, so definitely something to consider!
oh that look yummmmmmmy. I need to just LIVE with other bloggers just so I can get food cooked without me having to do it 😉 haha
Haha that’s how I feel too! I would love having someone else cook amazing and healthy meals for me:)
Lisa, I wish I knew you were near us, I would have been out there to cheer you on! Looks like a great course!
