Frittatas are famous for being healthy, easy ways to use up leftover cooked meats and vegetables, so you don't have to follow this recipe's suggestions for fillings. If you have leftovers like ground beef, cooked bacon, odds and ends of cheese, or sauteed peppers lying around, throw them in (grate the cheese first, and pre-cook any raw meat)! To make this vegetarian, sub in plant-based chorizo or leave it out entirely.

Spinach and Chorizo Frittata
I am a Nurse, wife, and mom. I have spent over 20 years in Healthcare and always took care of everyone else. Finally, after years of yo-yo dieting and failed New Years' resolutions, and complete desperation, I found something that Finally worked for me. I have been doing this Keto/Low carb lifestyle for over 3 years and have lost over 100lbs. My goal was to bring this lifestyle to my family and we went from couch potatoes to our 1st 5k and have lost over 300 lbs. We still have a long way to reach our goals, but we strive to be better every day. I enjoy helping women bring this Keto/Low carb lifestyle to the family.
