You always hear that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It also happens to be my favorite, but there never seems to be enough time! That is why I am a firm believer that breakfast is great anytime of day. When I have time, whether its morning afternoon or evening, I’ll make breakfast! Sometimes I’ll eat dinner for breakfast or breakfast for lunch, there are no rules 😉
My family’s breakfast preferences are on the sweet side, so I impose my savory tendencies on them as much as they allow. I’m not really a sweet person. I don’t really like waffles, unless there is fried chicken involved or pancakes unless they are wrapped around sausage. Breakfast Pizza and Gluten-Free Buttermilk Biscuits are two favorites in our house. A frittata is an easy way to get breakfast on the table fast and so versatile.
Frittata
Ingredients
8 eggs
½ cup of milk
½ teaspoon of salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 ½ cups of your choice of vegetable (peppers or asparagus or potatoes or mixture)
¼ cup of your choice of sausage or bacon (optional)
½ cup of your choice of cheese (shredded cheddar or feta)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper.  If vegetables and meat are not cooked, saute in oven proof skillet. Then pour egg mixture into pan and place in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes, until center is set and it no longer jiggles. If vegetables and meat are already cooked, just mix in with egg mixture before pouring into the pan.
I do sometimes give in to their many, many requests for sweet breakfasts. For pancakes, we usually use the Gluten-free Bisquick mix, but occasionally will make them from scratch using Cup4Cup GF flour or a variation like these Gingerbread Pancakes. These blueberry muffins make for a great breakfast on the go.
During the week however, we keep it simple and quick. My husband and kids mainly have cereal, yogurt or fruit and toast with Nutella. Even my kids who do not have celiac disease love Goodbye Gluten‘s gluten-free bread, which I can usually get at Wegman’s. When toasted, I even like it. I usually choose to top my toast with avocado or cream cheese and tomato or have a sunny side up egg. What are your favorite gluten-free breakfasts? I would especially love to hear your favorite smoothie recipes!
I always love new breakfast recipes! Thanks!
You are welcome!
I’ve haven’t met a frittata I didn’t like. 🙂 Yours looks delicious.
Thank you! I love frittatas! They are so easy and tasty!
We don’t have to worry about gluten free but these are great looking recipes.
Thank you! Frittatas are a great whether you are gluten-free or not! 🙂
I prefer savory breakfasts. I try to eat low carb or no carb in the am, so I imagine you can do alot with eggs, crustless quiches, I’m into shredding sweet potatoes, make a hashbrown and add a poached egg and some beans!
I need to practice my poaching technique 😉 Not very good at it. The sweet potatoes, poached egg and beans sounds great! Especially with a little salsa under the egg.
Amazing breakfast and best of all gluten-free recipes. Thank you so much for sharing them! Looking forward to read the rest of the recipes you share in your blog.
Thank you!
