Clean Eating: Plant Based Frittata

Summer time for me is always looking for easy but still flavor packed food that doesn't require long hours over the hot stove. I am also on a plant based kick in my home right now due to my husband and I trying to add more meatless meals into our weekly routine. I love a good brunch but one in which I can stay in my pjs and still feel as if I'm eating at one of our favorite brunch spots is double the reward for me! Enter this plant based frittata. It is packed with the trader joes soy chorizo and baby potatoes and I promise you from one meat lover to another you will never even realize you're eating plant based. Give it and try for your next brunch in (you can substitute any veggies you have in your house and use cheese if you're going for a vegetarian kick as opposed to vegan) and pair it with a Bellini and tell me your thoughts!

• Allow the frittata to set at the bottom, about 4-5 minutes. (Do not move or stir the frittata) You’ll notice the edges start to firm.

• Place the cast-iron skillet in the oven for 10-12 minutes. The frittata will be golden on the top. To get an even more golden top, finish the frittata under the broiler for 3 minutes on the lowest setting.
