I’ve been in search of a quick breakfast item that’s healthy, not processed, and is allergen friendly. I’m allergic to milk and egg yolks, so this was no easy task. I’ve always heard a protein-forward breakfast is the way to go, and usually, that means scrambled eggs and bacon, but given my allergy and my quest for eating non-processed foods, it wasn’t going to work.

To get around this, I thought I’d just go all-in and make an egg white-only frittata. I’ve never made one before, and I always thought they were Spanish. When I was researching I found out they actually originate in Italy. Frittata means “fried” in Italian, but I went with the baking route. It’s easier, you can just put it in the oven and relax or check some items off your to-do list.
