Being eight months pregnant, I've found that I need to eat a high protein nutritious breakfast to ensure I have enough energy to get through a day of small child wrangling, school runs, cooking, cleaning, errands and managing to look somewhat sane and possibly even awake when hubby gets home after ten. Eggs are a fabulous way to start the day and ensure your energy level remains high for quite some time. Add that to two servings of veggies and you're really off to a good start. Peas are a great source of ALA and phytonutrients and topped off with some homemade beetroot relish I have a breakfast that any midwife would approve of. This is so easy and so delicious and is a truly fabulous start to the day!
Curried Pea Frittata for One
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- handful frozen peas
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp curry powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
- beetroot, tomato, salsa or other fresh relish to serve
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the onion until just softened. Add the peas and cook until warmed through.
Meanwhile whisk eggs with salt, pepper and curry powder. Pour over pea and onion mixture and allow to gently cook. Lift sides with a spatula to allow egg to flow underneath. Cook through, or pop under a hot grill to finish.
Serve hot with relish or mango chutney.
