Garden Fresh Frittata
Ingredients:
1 cup zucchini
1 cup red pepper
1 cup mushrooms
1 cup spinach
1/4 cup chopped yellow onion
1/4 cup cheese of choice: cheddar, parmesan, goat, etc… plus 2 tbs for serving
1/2 cup chopped herbs, 1/4 for batter, 1/4 for serving
Approx. 10 cherry tomatoes
sliced 1 lb sausage
18 eggs
1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp seasoning of choice (I use 21 seasoning salute from trader joes)
Makes approx. 20 muffins or 2 standard size pies
Directions:
Brown the sausage in coconut oil while whisking eggs in a large bowl
Add salt to eggs, allow to sit while moving on to the next step
Remove sausage from heat
Add veggies (except spinach-keep fresh), mushrooms first to a pan with 1 tbs coconut oil and seasoning; allow mushrooms to cook partially, then add other veggies; cook until tender
Add cooked veggies, sausage, and fresh herbs and spinach to eggs; stir to combine
Add cheese; stir to combine
Prepare muffin tins or pie plates by coating with butter or coconut oil
Pour mixture in, approx 2/3 full Add 1-2 slices of cherry tomatoes to the top of each muffin, or sprinkle across the pie.
Bake until cooked through- use a fork, toothpick or knife to check for solid centers- approx 20
minutes, but keep an eye on them!
Allow to cool; slide a knife around each muffin/pie to ensure it separates from the side of the pans. Serve with fresh herbs and extra cheese sprinkled on top!

PS) look for fresh, local, organic ingredients for the best possible version! * pasture raised, organic chicken eggs are best * vary veggies based on what’s in season
