Easy Quinoa & Kale Frittata

Over the years, I have made many different frittatas. I have made some with just vegetables, others with some chicken and my favourite has been a combination of vegetables and quinoa. So, today I will share with you one of my all time favourite frittata. Quinoa, kale and shredded vegetables frittata 😍

As you know, quinoa is my favourite grain (although it is NOT a grain but a pseudocereal which is closely related to spinach and beets family) and kale is one of my favourite vegetables after broccoli 🥦 😍 So, I could not be happier when I make this frittata combination. If you do not like kale, you can use baby spinach instead 😊 Frittatas are also great for meal prep ideas as they keep well in the fridge for up to a week. So, if you are looking for meal prep ideas and like frittatas, you may want to give this recipe a try 😄
