Easy Keto Frittata
You want a delicious breakfast. You want it fast. You also want it to be keto-friendly. How can you possibly get everything you need while also only making enough for just one person? With this perfect breakfast mug frittata of course! If you have 5 minutes in the morning, that means you have time to make this recipe, creating a yummy, fresh frittata that is a keto follower's dream. Take a look at how easy it is and how much you can do with this simple recipe.
The first part of this recipe that is simply amazing is the fact that it is all made in a mug, cooked in the microwave. There is no need to get out excess pans, fire up the oven, or even sit down at the table to enjoy this frittata. You can cook it right in the mug and then take it with you in the car or as you walk around your house in the morning getting ready for the day. It is just as convenient as a cup of coffee (but of course, far healthier and more filling!).
The ingredients inside the frittata are also something to be noted. Of course, there are the standard eggs that are the basis of any frittata. Eggs are an awesome ingredient to enjoy when on a keto diet as they are high in fats, will give you a good deal of protein and they also are carb-free. Hurray for eggs! Our recipe mixes in spinach, chives, cheese, and mushrooms to add some more flavor to the frittata. All of these veggies are low in carbs as well and packed with flavor (chives themselves add a lot of strong aromas that will wake you right up in the morning!).
When you start to make this recipe every day, which you will likely do, you may want to switch up the veggies to keep your mug frittata exciting. A fourth of a cup of broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, chopped asparagus, or a half cup of chopped kale are all great substitutes. You can also switch up your cheese choices. Try using shredded mozzarella, feta cheese, or even blue cheese in the recipe, using the same quantity of cheese as asked for in our delicious recipe.
As you can see, not only is this recipe for breakfast mug frittata tasty, quick, and portable, but it is completely customizable so you can make your ideal breakfast a reality. Follow the basics of the recipe, swap out some veggies and spices if you’d like, and then enjoy! Keto breakfast has never been so easy!
