Mini Sante Fe Frittata’s
Mini Sante Fe Frittata’s are the perfect make ahead meal for busy families!
Making frittata’s isn’t a lot of work at all, but when you can make little individual ones in the oven, it just got even easier! Who hasn’t had a rushed morning when you think there’s not time for a healthy breakfast? These make ahead frittata’s are the perfect solution. Easy, healthy and pick-up-able for on the go!
When I saw the opportunity to create a recipe for Eggland’s Best Eggs I jumped at it! I always knew they were the freshest eggs I could buy in my market but I never knew how much better they compared to ordinary eggs everywhere else.
Egglands’ Best Eggs have:
- 25% less saturfated fat
- 10 times more Vitamin E
- 4x more Vitamin D
- More than double the Omega-3
- 3 times more Vitamin B12
- 38% more Lutein
Those facts alone are wonderful, but not only that, did you know Eggland’s eggs are delivered to supermarkets within 3 days of hatching? Yes! Awesome to know I’m getting as fresh as they come! Eggland’s Best eggs do not feed their hens feed that contains any hormones, steroids or antibiotics which really make they the best choice for eggs available in any market. You will find some great egg recipe ideas on their Pinterest page as well as Facebook page.
You could make this recipe in a 9 by 13 baking dish as a large casserole and cut pieces, or try it in a regular muffin tin, either way the whole family will love this twist on the typical egg frittata. You can change the pork sausage to nitrate free bacon instead or leave out any meat all together and just enjoy a veggie frittata.
Top these with some salsa, sour cream and fresh chopped cilantro and you’ve got not only a healthy beautiful breakfast or brunch recipe, but a hearty and satisfying one as well. No one will be asking for snacks an hour after this protein filled breakfast.

Where do I get the square baking pan for individual
Frittatas that you showed?
Thanks, Sue

How long would you recommend leaving this for? As in, could I make a batch on Sunday to last up until Friday? Thanks, Rebecca.
Yes that amount of time in the fridge should be fine.
Hi, Ms. Brenda!
I’m starting the sugar detox program tomorrow, and I’m noticing that a lot of the serving sizes say 1g. Is that true? Is that like 1 frittata? Thank you!
Nita
I switched to a new recipe plug in and it messed up all the serving. Look for the total servings in the recipe and not the size because I need to fix all by hand manually.
Brenda,
Can you freeze the Mini Santa Fe Frittatas?
Denise
I’ve not tried to, we always eat them up during the week, but I think you certainly could.
Does Egg Land have free roaming chicken? Cage Free does NOT mean they are not in tight quarters & confined
Can these be frozen?
They could be yes.
What can I use instead of the liquid egg white?
Just replace with another egg
I have learned how to make microwave poacheded eggs. 1/2 cup reg temp water in a coffee cup with a smaller bottom. Gently break the egg into it. Cover with a small plate. 55 seconds on high works perfect for me. Drain. Its so good and foolproof once you get your exact time.
I use these eggs too. I made whole wheat apple muffins this week. Also my great granddaughter had egg and cheese for her breakfast yesterday when I kept her.
So glad your save button is working now. I have saved several recipes lately.
BLESSINGS!!!
Thanks for sharing Charlotte, you are one faithful reader and I appreciate your comments!
