    This kale and pepper frittata is not only really tasty but it's simple to make, packed with protein and full of healthy nutritional ingredients too!

    A great brunch idea for the weekend this kale and pepper frittata hits the spot perfectly and it's really good for you.

    The peppers which are rich in vitamins A, C and K add a delicious sweetness and crunch to this hearty recipe.

    The kale, which, being one of the world’s healthiest foods, is excellent in aiding good digestion and in lowering cholesterol levels and the risk of cancer too.

    Although I used yellow peppers and orange peppers, these were the only ones I had to hand. Use any that you have available!

    It's easier if you have a shallow omelette pan, or the bottom of an egg poaching pan, which is what I'm actually using in my pictures.

    I also serve this kale and pepper frittata for dinner with lots of extra vegetables and a good quality complex carbohydrate such as wholegrain rice. So, it’s a pretty versatile dish overall.

    There’s lots of other frittata fillings that I love, not just kale and pepper, but for now I’ll start with this one.

      Your frittata sounds perfect for a cold morning - that yogurt must have made it extra creamy!
      Btw, I made me an inexpensive tabletop light using a work lamp and a box lined with foil and a daylight bulb and a white sheet - works pretty well for those cloudy days and is budget friendly too!

        Hi Shashi, I do love these tasty eggs at the weekend and the yogurt definitely makes a difference from adding milk! 🙂

        Yeah, I can see me building one of those DIY light box things if things carry on like this. I've seen a few websites and I've taken note of the information from Pinch of Yum's Tasty Food Photography too. I just need to find my toolbox..... 😉
