NOTES:
This frittata is easy, gluten free, vegetarian and nourishing.
Enjoy warm or cold. It's packed with protein, fats, fibre and vitamins & minerals.
Enjoy on it's own, or add a side of lentils, salad, or veg of choice.
Use a mix of greens - rocket adds great flavour
I make 2 frittatas - ready to eat over the next few days or freeze a couple of portions.
Here's the ingredients for one frittata in a 9 inch square baking dish
1.5 cups cubed baked pumpkin
1 onion - chopped roughly
170 g (6oz) feta cheese (ethically raised)
2-3 cloves garlic
1 cup baked cauliflower
1 cup finely chopped greens: kale/spinach/rocket
8-9 eggs (pasture-raised)
1 teaspoon turmeric
pinch nutmeg
black pepper
mixed herbs
pasture-raised/grass fed grated cheese (optional) for the top
What to do
preheat oven
chop the pumpkin (squash) and place on a baking sheet
chop and bake the onion and place on the baking sheet-drizzle some avocado oil
place in moderate oven for around 30 mins
chop cauliflower. drizzle a little avocado oil Add to the baking sheet after about 15 mins
finely chop the kale/spinach/greens
crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the spices and lightly beat
chop the feta into small cubes
line your baking dish with eco-friendly baking paper
place all the ingredients into the dish and bake in a moderate oven for around 30-40 mins
Leave your delicious frittata to stand for 5-10 mins whilst you prep other veggies and get organised for dinner.
TIP: Cut it up and pop a piece in a to-go container ready to take when you leave the house the next day. Or for dinner the next night.
TIP: no need for salt - the feta has enough salt.
