An Easy Italian Frittata Recipe
Guys! Thanksgiving is tomorrow! YEAHHHHHHHHH!!!
Can you believe we finally got here? Have you finished all your turkey day shopping?
I hope so, or you’re in a mad house tomorrow!
I don’t know about you but I’m so over seeing all the Thanksgiving Day recipes.
Now, don’t get me wrong, I want to devour all the food tomorrow but seeing my facebook feed filled with Thanksgiving recipes and all the pumpkin… yeah that I’m over.
Let’s move on to Christmas recipes shall we!
I think we should head into the Christmas recipes, I kinda eluded to that last week with those Espresso Cashew Clusters.
Which on a side note, if you haven’t tried them yet, YOU HAVE TO! The Espresso grounds and chocolate …. Muah! Perfection!
But today we are focusing on breakfast and all things yummy in the tummy!
Why I Love Frittatas
One of our favorite things to make for breakfast or even for dinner some nights are frittatas. It’s basically like eating a pizza for breakfast! It has loads of protein in it and can be so versatile.
This Frittata was birthed out of my love for all things Caprese! I’m totally a sucker for it. But even more of a sucker for roasted tomatoes! Case and point, Mashed Avocado Goat Cheese Sandwich with Roasted Tomato, Roasted Tomato Bruschetta with Whipped Goat Cheese, Pesto Chicken Zoodles with Burst Tomato, and Roasted Tomato Caprese Pasta Salad!
You see … I’m kinda obsessed.
And believe me, you will be too after you try this Roasted Tomato Caprese Frittata.
Garlic infused spinach, roasted tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and fresh basil! Everything is sauteed in one pan and then thrown in the oven. It doesn’t get easier than that folks.
Plus the colors are so festive … psstt… red and green!
Bon Appetit friends! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

The roasted tomatoes gave the frittata a slightly sweet tang that coincided perfectly with the other ingredients! I’ll make it again!
I know right! That’s my favorite part!
This turned out fabulous! I halved the recipe and used a smaller skillet. Served it with toasted country white bread. Awesome!
woohoo… so glad you liked it Elizabeth!
Frittatas are actually one of my favorite things to make for weeknight dinners! (Like every single week lol.) But my family also loves a frittata for Christmas brunch. This twist looks fabulous–I especially love the festive colors! Thanks for the recipe!
