Fluffy

Frittatas are an awesome breakfast option for someone like me who doesn't have time to cook every morning: they can be made in advance and refrigerated, and are easy to heat up. Plus, they can be a fully balanced meal, as well as being delicious. What's not to like?

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 cups baby spinach

1 cup mushrooms, sliced
