Easy Oven Baked Frittata
I usually live off a diet of children’s leftovers and find I tend to end up eating terribly, things like toast crusts and leftover pasta. So I am attempting to meal prep four days of lunches and dinners for myself. I have no problem eating the same thing for 4 days, then changing, which makes it super easy. This week I am having this frittata for lunch and butter chicken with cauliflower rice for dinner.
This frittata comes together in just a couple of steps. The first time I made it I whisked the eggs and then combined everything in one bowl, then poured into the dish to bake. I found though that everything floated to the top when it cooked. If you layer it in the dish with a bit of cheese on top, the mixture seemed to mix through the frittata a bit more. You could top with more cheese if you like a crispy cheesy top.

- ½ cup / 100g grated cheese, mozzarella or cheddar both work well
- salt & pepper
Instructions
Pre heat oven to 200°C.
In a large bowl whisk together the eggs and yoghurt.
Grease a baking dish with butter then layer in the spinach, basil, some of the tomatoes and cheese. Pour over the egg mixture, top with remaining tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until firm in the centre.
Allow to cool in baking dish, then tip out onto a board and cut into servings.
Notes
You can freeze frittata, but this version has a lot of moisture with all the tomatoes, so I wouldn’t recommend it. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.

WHERE TO BUY TRUE FREE RANGE EGGS?
If you don’t have access to chickens in your backyard or a neighbours, it can be really hard knowing which eggs are coming from chickens that are well looked after. There is some great information on the Local Harvest website and they have a map where you can put in your town and find the nearest small-scale poultry farm and where you can buy their eggs.
