In association with British Lion Eggs
I don’t know about you but sometimes meal times in our house have to be a really quick affair. There can be a spate of school meetings etc that all seem to occur bang in the middle of dinner time so a quick solution is needed! This is when I reach into the fridge for a box of eggs and make something like this Veggie Frittata from British Lion Eggs. With just a few minutes of preparation you can have a really tasty and healthy meal in no time at all so it really is a win/win situation. Do watch the video below (part of a series) and even if you don’t have all the ingredients, just improvise with what you have, Fritattas are so adaptable!
Eggs are a great source of protein, vitamins and minerals and will help to keep you feeling fuller for longer! Remember that old ad “Go to work on an egg” – younger readers, ask your parents:-) So eggs are pretty much the perfect food food in my eyes as they not only taste great on their own but are also incredibly versatile when combined with other ingredients. Saturday lunchtimes have become a traditional time for a quick and nutritious egg based dish such as my Easy Cheesy Courgette Omelette or my Quick Poached Egg and Garlic Spinach Bagel in my house. The whole family love eggs and I love finding new ways of incorporating them into our meals.
Did you know that British Lion Eggs’ producers have to follow a stringent Code of Practice which ensures the highest standards of food safety and animal welfare? So make sure when you’re buying eggs to look out for the British Lion Quality mark on the box!

Cathy @ Planet Veggie
I love making frittata as they’re so easy (I made mini ones in a muffin tin the other day) but my boyfriend moans that they’re not as nice as an omelette. He can do the cooking then!
Camilla
Men, always have an opinion but do they cook!
Kerry @ Kerry Cooks
Fab Camilla! I coincidentally just had a veggie egg scramble for lunch! And I always recommend lion eggs to my friends as you can eat them when pregnant and a lot of them miss a runny yolk while they’re incubating little uns!
Camilla
Lush Kerry, where would we be without eggs!
kellie@foodtoglow
I am big fan of eggs and start my day more often than not with some form of egg. And if I have made a frittata for supper I finagle to have leftovers just so I can have it for breakfast too. Frittatas are an excellent vehicle for adding more veg into the diet so it’s a win-win. I am looking forward to perusing your links. We love eggs in purgatory!
Camilla
We need an egg fan club:-)
Becca @ Amuse Your Bouche
Frittatas are one of my go-to easy dinners for when I don’t have anything else planned. They’re a brilliant way to clear out the fridge too!
Camilla
Exactly Becca, a great way to include your 5-a-day:-)
