Healthy Pepperoni Pizza Frittata

Pizza for breakfast! No, it’s not a college flashback, this is a healthy and tasty dish for any time of the day. Hot or cold, you’ll love it served aside fresh fruit or a salad.

We really enjoy Applegate products and use their Mini Turkey Pepperoni in this dish.

Having an oven proof pan makes this recipe very easy. However, if you do not have one, you may saute your veggies and then add your eggs to a 8″ or 9″ square glass baking dish, sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. You may need to cook a bit longer, as the dish will not be hot to start. Muffin tins are also an option for a grab-and-go breakfast or snack.

Here is a link to the pan I love. I use it at least once a day for stir-fries and sauteed veggies. Having a trusty pan is essential for a home cook.
