Spinach and Feta Frittata

Spinach and Feta Frittata

This Spinach and Feta Frittata is absolutely perfect for New Years brunch! A great, delicious and easy way to impress your friends and family for the new year. 

Whenever I heard about people making egg frittatas, it sounded so fancy. And we all know, I’m not a fancy gal. I like on the go, easy recipes and this did not sound one bit like that. It reminded me of something you would have at a brunch or company party paired with mimosas. 

To my surprise, egg frittatas are SO easy to make! Like, it can be an every day breakfast if you want it too and reheats so well.
