‘ENGLISH BREAKFAST’ FRITTATA

WHO DOESN’T LOVE A FRY UP? THE SMELL ALONE CAN REALLY GET THE APPETITE GOING, BUT ALL THAT SATURATED FAT SIMPLY ISN’T GOOD FOR YOU. INSTEAD, BY MAKING A FRITTATA WITH ALL THE INGREDIENTS OF A FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST, YOU’RE GETTING ALL THE FLAVOURS, WITHOUT ALL THE FAT. TO ROUND IT ALL OFF AND IN KEEPING WITH THE NAME, SERVE SOME BAKED BEANS ON THE SIDE.
