Cheeseburger Frittata

When you’re short on time - not to mention DON’T want to do a lot of dishes! - this dish reigns supreme! Or King…or Big Mac…or whatever fast food burger you’re craving. Don’t waste your money on an unhealthy, sodium and fat-laden bomb. Fix this cheeseburger frittata instead - in less than 20 minutes and for about the same amount of money you’d spend at a drive thru on just yourself, you’ll have a macro and budget friendly dish ready for the entire family to gobble up!

This recipe makes 4 servings with 30+ grams of protein and <400 calories per serving. It can easily be scaled up or down in servings + whatever veggies or other toppings you want to add. (Just be warned that reducing or adding ingredients will change the cooking time.)

My favorite additions are mushrooms, baby spinach & sundried tomatoes; served topped with avocado slices. Yumm-o!!!
