Make It Your Own

One of the best parts of mini frittatas is how flexible they are. Try swapping or adding ingredients based on your preferences:

  • Vegetarian: Skip the ham and add sautéed spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms

  • Cheese options: Try feta, cheddar, or goat cheese

  • Herbs: Fresh basil, chives, or dill add a bright finish

  • Dairy-free: Use unsweetened almond or oat milk in place of dairy milk

Storage Tips

  • Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days

  • Freeze: Cool completely, then freeze in a single layer. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Reheat in the microwave or oven as needed
