Green Eggs & Ham Frittata

I strongly believe in starting your morning with protein and healthy fat. Save your carbohydrates for the second half of the day when your insulin sensitivity isn't as strong. By eating a protein-rich breakfast with healthy fats, you'll not only keep your body in fat-burning mode but this style of breakfast will keep you full for hours and give you tons of energy. What's nice about a frittata recipe is that you can always change up the ingredients based on what you have in the kitchen. Any vegetables and protein you currently have, throw that in and whip up your own version of these frittata's. Even better than customizing your own frittata, is getting a single-serving of it. Show off to your guests and serve them one of these with a warm cup of coffee. Chances are you'll have some trouble sending them home!Now, get cooking!
