Quick and Easy Vegetable Frittata
This is a very nutritious dish that’s quick and easy to make using leftover vegetables. Breakfast, quick lunch or even a light supper - there's no excuse for not eating your veggies with this one! Eggs are a great source of good quality protein. I use mushrooms, sweet potatoes and broccoli, but you can pretty much use whatever you have leftover such as carrots, courgettes, peppers, greens, etc. By using lots of different coloured vegetables you are getting a good variety of nutrients – eat a rainbow!

Instructions:
Gently sauté the mushrooms, broccoli and sweet potatoes in a little butter in a small frying pan for 2/3 minutes.
