Crockpot Frittata with a Kick!
You know I always love sharing recipes with you guys. So today, I'm going to share one that I make a lot and requires virtually no effort on your part! Simply drag out the old slow cooker, see what veggies you have lurking in your refrigerator and go for it!
Let's talk for a bit about how crazy busy things get. I know, it's life and if you're a Mom with busy kids, it seems like every seasons brings new challenges. I know, I sound like I'm on repeat lately but it's so true! We've been getting back into the routine and yes, it seems like it's taken a good month to get there but slowly, we are inching back in. My mornings are hectic again, I'll save the lazy coffee filled mornings for the weekends I guess.
One thing I use a lot this time of year and really, all year, its my slow cooker. I love it! Yesterday I used it to make sweet potatoes and they were perfect! Simply rinse your sweet potatoes, and toss them in your crockpot. Nothing else is needed! They were on low for about 6 hours and when we got home from our crazy evening, they were perfect and so easy!
Another thing I make a lot is this Spicy Crockpot Veggie Frittata. Protein packed and healthy, this is SO easy! My secret weapon for this recipe? HEAT! In the form of Hungarian Paprika and Jalapenos. If you're not a fan of spice, better stick to the crockpot sweet potatoes but if you are, go for it! It's spicy and flavorful!
