A healthy and delicious breakfast that's ready in almost no time and can be prepped ahead? Meet your new bff... Petite Vegetable Frittatas! Press play to see how easy these are!
Back in the day I wasn't really a breakfast person. Well, unless it came in the form of a jumbo double chocolate chip muffin from Costco!! Do you guys remember those? They still exist and it's basically just chocolate cake in muffin form. They were best when heated up for 25 seconds so the chocolate chips just barely start to melt. Oh man, I can literally taste them just writing this. I'm just going to forget about the fact that they were about 2 billion calories each. Times have since changed and now I'm all about a healthy breakfast to kick off the day like these Petite Vegetable Frittatas!
Thomas and I go through these like whoa! I make them every few days and we just re-heat them every morning in a toaster oven. I've been known to dunk them in salsa, add a dollop of guacamole, or go back to my childhood ways and add a squirt of ketchup! They're perfect because the last thing I want to do in the morning is make a mess of my clean kitchen! You can make them with any vegetables you have laying around your kitchen, add a touch of cheese and some fresh herbs and you have yourself a perfect breakfast! But wait!

I am making these ASAP. I love fritattas and the idea of making mini ones to go is awesome.
This is such a fabulous idea! I sometimes want eggs for breakfast but don't have time or don't want to go through the trouble of making them... premade little frittatas would be perfect! I recently made mini quiche (which I haven't gotten around to posting yet), but I feel like those would be a great breakfast option too... although not as easy as frittatas since you'd have to make crust. Love all the veggies you used in these too!
This is a great idea for breakfast on the go!
These look wonderful! I make these for breakfast too, so easy to grab and go! A perfect breakfast! Beautiful shots too 🙂
This sounds fantastic!! It is perfect to use all my vegetables I have sitting around for this recipe! Great pictures Gaby!
these are so adorable, bite size delicious
Great idea! Why didn't I think of this? I usually rush out the door and eat my made-ahead oatmeal (with blueberries and walnuts) at work. I love oatmeal but I will add this variety to my usual routine.
These look great, Gaby - I have some leftover sauteed kale in the refrigerator at home right now. Frittata for breakfast tomorrow! Thanks!
Yes, you sure do need to eat a great breakfast when training for a half marathon. Is it your first? Which one are you running? The 1/2 is a great length. Not too hard on the body, it gets you really strong in mind and physique. Perfect distance! (also clues you in to decide if you wanna run a full)
Great recipe! Love the grab and go concept. My idea of fast food is something very healthy, tasty & homemade that I can grab from the fridge on a whim. This would be it!
I love when recipes use muffin tins in an unconventional way! Great recipe!
These look perfect for a quick breakfast! I bring breakfast to work every day, so this would work great for me. plus mike loves eggs! Can't wait to try these. 🙂
I am not an egg person, I stick to oatmeal, but Josh loves eggs. I will have to make these for him! They are super cute!
Hey, Gaby, I just found your new site via foodbuzz. I don't know how I lost touch but I subscribed to your new feed now! Those mini frittatas look absolutely scrumptious and so adorable!
Yum! All of my favorite ingredients!! I wish I had these right now!
These are so adorable. They are the perfect size! I am a chocolate chip muffin kinda breakfast person, too. 🙂
