Like a lot of busy mothers, I often find myself stuck in a dinner rut making the same meals over and over again. I’m always looking for new & healthy meal ideas for my family that are also quick and easy to prepare. I was browsing the Eggs.ca site last week and came across Pizza Frittata and I was excited to give it a try! Don’t let the fancy name fool you – it is really easy to make. The ingredients include eggs, vegetables, cheese and more so it’s a meal packed full of healthy nutrients.

What Makes Eggs Such A Healthy Choice?

With 6 grams of high-quality protein and 14 important nutrients like vitamins A, D and E, iron, zinc and choline, eggs are a healthy choice for family meals. We’re fortunate in Canada to have access to fresh, nutritious and high-quality proteins year round. Remember – eggs aren’t just a breakfast meal!
