Frittata Thermomix recipe

Sharing is caring!

 

This Mediterranean Frittata is perfect for brunch on a Sunday morning and was originally developed for my 7th cookbook ‘The Healthy Mix III’, however we decided to release it on skinnymixers.com instead!

While olives might not be considered by most a traditional breakfast ingredient, they are a wonderful way to start the day out with a hit of healthy heart protecting and inflammation fighting fats.
