Gluten-Free Mushroom Bacon Frittata
There’s nothing like a nutritious, savory, delicious breakfast to lift up your spirits for the week ahead. Despite the fact that I generally skip breakfast altogether and just go straight for a cup of coffee, I do encourage others to get in the “most important meal of the day.” (I use quotes because it makes me feel better about ditching breakfast.) Anyways … if you need a good breakfast recipe full of veggies, protein, and flavor, give this Mushroom Bacon Frittata a try!
Mushrooms and bacon have an affinity for each other it seems, and Parmesan cheese and arugula do, too. Combine them all and it’s a flavor party! Of course, you need something breakfast-y to tie it altogether, so what better ingredient than protein-rich eggs? I used Nature’s Yoke pasture-raised eggs in this recipe, nitrate-free bacon, and organic veggies.
