Frittatas are my go-to breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I can use whatever ingredients I happen to have in the fridge and the process from start to finish is fast and easy! I love omelettes too, but let's be honest, those are soooo much work when you are making them for more than just yourself. Ain't nobody got time for that when you have kiddos to feed, or just hungry people in your life in general right? My new favorite frittata combines the flavors of gorgeous Spring produce with a classic white pizza and the outcome is insanely delicious yet simple at the same time. My white pizza Spring Frittata is the answer to any breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner any day of the week!
I don't know about you, but I seriously dig Spring produce. Asparagus in particular is one of my favorites and just happens to be so delicate and beautiful at this time of year. I got lucky in the fact that Parks loves asparagus too and will usually ask for two servings! So you better believe I serve asparagus at meal time at least once a week! In addition to asparagus, so many other beauties come into season too so it was hard to pick just a few to add into this frittata! I ended up going with three that I thought would pair nicely together and would hold up to the garlicky and cheesy deliciousness that is this frittata!
I mean after all the inspiration for this recipe came from craving a white pizza. You know the ones that are just cheese, garlic, and herbs? Hello yummmm! I have made Mini Pizza Bite Frittatas (by the way these are so perfect for kiddos) before so I thought I would make another version and this time add veggies to make it beautiful, green, and fresh!
This spring frittata would be so perfect and lovely for any Mother's Day brunch, or any brunch for that matter, but is simple enough for any day of the week too!
You are going to love serving this up alongside a simple green salad with some crusty bread and easy as that you have a healthy and delicious meal that your whole family will love!
