This Mason Jar Veggie Frittata is the perfect recipe to get your kids in the kitchen with you. They really can’t mess this one up!
What is your go-to recipe when you have visitors staying with you? I almost always take the time to prepare a frittata before we have guests come to town. Sometimes we eat it for breakfast on Saturday morning, sometimes lunch, and sometimes it’s a great late night dinner if they get in after a long day of traveling.
This time, I wanted to try it for a quick weekday breakfast. It takes some time to bake, but I knew I could use those 30 minutes to get everyone dressed and ready for the day. To make my job even easier in the morning, I prepared everything the night before.
It literally does not get easier. Crack some eggs into a mason jar (or tupperware), toss veggies on top, add seasonings, and that’s it!
My three year old loved helping to shake everything up in the morning. I loved that I just used one jar to prepare it, shake it up, and dump it in a greased baking dish. Whisking in a bowl is fine, but I try to go as mess-free as possible when kids are helping in the kitchen.
Next time I may try a tupperware instead of a jar, just in case those little toddler hands don’t get a good grip when shaking it up. The last thing I need is broken glass and raw eggs flying across the kitchen!
I love that you don’t need to cook the veggies ahead of time. Just chop them and toss them in. I used sliced mushrooms and pre-chopped broccoli to make it REALLY quick, but feel free to use any veggies your kids prefer. They can even help you chop with kid-friendly knives. These
And you can’t go wrong if you sprinkle some cheese on top!
