Simple Cabbage & Scallion Frittatas

Five minutes, one bowl, and whatever greens you have in the fridge. These simple frittatas come together faster than toast and are infinitely more satisfying. Cabbage, scallions, eggs, and a pinch of smoked paprika — golden on both sides and done in 10 minutes flat. Make them small for a quick breakfast or go large for lunch or a light dinner. Gluten-free, vegetarian, and just as good cold from the fridge the next day.

Ingredients

  • 4 large free-range eggs
  • 2 cups finely chopped green cabbage (or kale or spinach)
  • 4 sprigs scallion or handful parsley or any herb you like
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive or avocado oil

Instructions

  • Break the eggs into a medium bowl and beat. Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the oil, to the eggs and beat to combine.
  • Warm the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Ladle about ½ cup of the mix into the skillet. Fit as many as possible but make sure you leave a 1-inch gap between each frittata. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then flip using a spatula. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Serve immediately or store in a container in the fridge for up to 1 day.

Notes

If you decided to make a large frittata let it cook longer, about 3-4 minutes, before you flip it.
