FRITTATA

Paleo // Refined Sugar Free // Gluten Free 

Frittata is one of my favourite dishes for meal prep! Rich in protein, vegetables and healthy fats, it keeps me fuller for longer throughout the day and satisfies my cravings. Leek is also my favourite addition to this dish (do not miss this ingredient!).

INGREDIENTS:

• Oven-proof deep frying pan that can be placed in oven
• 6 eggs lightly beaten
• 3 Roma Tomatoes chopped into quarters
• 1 Red Onion
• 1 Zucchini chopped into strips
• 5 Field Mushrooms cut into strips

• Chopped WASHED Kale
• Roast pumpkin (any type, I leave skin on and cut into cubes, put in oven for 45 minutes with a drizzle of olive oil)
• ¼ cup of Unsweetened Almond Milk
• 3 tbsp olive oil
