What better way to start the day than with a frittata?!?  It sounds so faaancy, but it’s extremely easy to make and super nutritious. A lot of times I make a double batch in a bigger pan, and we eat it all week! I love stuff you can make ahead of time and enjoy the next couple of days.  It’s also a versatile recipe, so you can substitute whatever veggies you like or have around the house.

Following recipes has never...

All three of us devoured a breakfast wrap that blew our 22 year-old-just-moved-to-L.A. minds, and we still talk about it to this day.
