    Frittatas are the perfect breakfast or brunch necessity. Also great to make ahead for meal prep. I usually make them with whatever I have on hand. In the spring, asparagus is wonderful with Swiss cheese, but you can also use mozzarella or Havarti. Some other egg dishes you may love Tomato and Zucchini Frittata, Spinach and Feta Frittata or Broccoli and Cheese Quiche.,Alt=,This is really filling, and the leftovers for perfect for lunch or breakfast the next day. They are inexpensive and a great way to clean out the fridge. A great option for Meatless Monday dinner also, with salad on the side.,Make it dairy-free! Violife makes some wonderful dairy-free cheese options!,Egg Whites: I like to lighten up frittatas by using part egg whites, but you can also use all whole eggs.,Switch it up! Onions or scallions can be used in place of shallots. Swap the cheese for whatever you like or have on hand.,Tomato and Zucchini Frittata,Light Swiss Chard Frittata,Mushroom Shallot Frittata,Caramelized Onion, Zucchini and Red Pepper Frittata,Bell Pepper and Potato Frittata
