This frittata recipe is eggsactly what you need to jumpstart your day.

Cheesy I know, but as a big believer in the importance of breakfast I couldn’t be more serious.
I’m amazed at how few college students, or even adults for that matter, eat breakfast. There’s the “I don’t have enough time,” or “I’d rather sleep” excuses I suppose, but it still baffles me. Because in my experience a missed breakfast means a less productive day.
This personal frittata can be thrown together in minutes. Make this before you hop in the shower and (if you’re like me and you take quick showers) it will be done by the time your hair is dry! Quick as a pinch and packed with protein: now that’s eggscellent!
