Easy Feta Frittata
Simple as pie, this is one of the easiest egg recipes you can make! It’s packed with protein, and has a delicious flavor from the feta and plain yogurt.
Why Add Greek Yogurt?
- Moisture: Greek yogurt will keep your frittata from drying out in the oven.
- Creaminess: Greek yogurt helps with the texture and consistency of the frittata.
- Flavor: Greek yogurt enhances the flavor of the egg and feta combination and adds a nice tang.
Substitutions
Because this recipe is so simple, there aren’t many substitution options! But, feel free to swap out the feta for other types of cheese. Some other options are cheddar, goat cheese, pecorino, or gouda. Add diced zucchini, bell peppers, chopped cherry tomatoes, spinach, or any other veggies for a nutrient boost!
Are Eggs a Healthy Choice for Toddlers and Young kids?
Eggs are a great choice for babies, toddlers, kids, and adults! Pediatric dietitian Alicia ‘Chacha” Miller, MS, RD, LDN (@Itsthecardamom on Instagram) says that eggs are a great source of protein, energy, and fats that support brain development. They improve eye development, too! She says, “They are also one of the best food sources of choline, which is crucial for many processes in the body like brain development, cognition, memory, mood, gene expression, muscle control, and many other functions of the nervous system.
