We think eggs are the best way to conquer hunger with healthy ingredients! Easy and a great way to use up little leftovers laying around the fridge, it's a guilt free meal when you're strap for time.
Eggs last so long in the fridge, that we usually have them laying around waiting to be cracked. I usually just scramble with a spice blend and call it a meal. But I'm always so surprised how quick frittatas are and how much more amazing they taste then a quick scramble.
The versatility of this is unreal; use this as the base for whatever you have lying around so that we can waste less and eat well!
Easy substitutes for cheese are feta or mozzarella, and if you don't have Porcini BBQ Genie then I would also recommend our 'Mary Had a Lot of Lamb', 'Taco Enhancer', 'Espresso Nice' or 'Maple Mustard Hamonizer' blends!
Easy Frittata with Broccoli and Cheddar
5-6
15 minutes
15 minutes
Italian
Breakfast, Brunch
Ingredients
- 8 eggs (local is more awesome!)
- ½ cup milk
1½ tbsp Porcini BBQ Genie
¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 shallot, diced
- 2 cups roughly chopped broccoli florets
- 2 cups Spinach, roughly chopped
- 3 green onions, sliced on a diagonal into 1" pieces
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 °F
In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat butter on medium heat. Once melted, add the chopped broccoli, shallot and that pinch of salt. Sauté until tender and maybe even some yummy char marks, stirring frequently. About 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and Porcini BBQ Genie spice blend. Then whisk in half of the cheese.
Arrange the vegetables in an even layer across the skillet and pour the egg mixture into the pan, giving it a little shake to distribute the ingredients once again. Sprinkle the frittata with the remaining cheese and then place the green onions nicely on top (extra points by having fun and making look pretty).
- Put the pan in the oven and bake until the middle is just barely set, about 12 to 15 minutes (ours took 13 minutes)
- Remove from oven and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing into it. Leftover frittata will keep well in the frige for up to 3 days!

Maple Mustard Hamonizer spice blend
I wasn't sure what to do with this...
I got one jar of this, and didn't know what to do with it. It was Taco Tuesday, so I decided to try to miss it while making the beef.
I would have to say that it ended up working, and I found my tacos were enhanced.

Big Cove Made It To The Caribbean!!!
My cousin and her husband came to visit me in Dominica West Indies. They brought along Egyptian summer and hot jerk spices from.Big Cove Foods!!! The taste sensation just blew my mind. I made a stirfry of chicken with vegetables using the Egyptian summer. The flavor was sensational. I used the hot jerk on some locally caught fresh mahi-mahi. It was absolutely extraordinary. I have a friend who’s coming to visit me in August and I’m hoping that she will be able to bring me a few of the others as well. I am hooked line and sinker. All the best with your business. I highly recommend these spices.. 💕

Mary Had a Lot of Lamb
Great hostess gifts!
These little boxes of spice varieties are great! I’m taking them to Ontario this week and will use them as the perfect little ‘hostess gifts’ I use Big Cove spices all the time. ‘Mary had a’ is my favourite. I use it on everything! (I don’t even like lamb so I definitely don’t just use it for that, lol!)

Flavourful Blend
I repurchased this tasty blend when it was available again. I would say it's a medium heat so it's a nice option to have. We also enjoy the Ghost Taco blend but use it sparingly for that extra kick!

Found in Baddeck. Making Food taste great in Toronto
Travelled to Cape Breton ( Baddeck, where I was born and raised ) a couple of years ago and found these amazing spices. Been ordering ever since. Shipping to Toronto covered for an order big enough ( which we do ). Pick it up at the One of a Kind Show when we can. Use on meats and roasted veggies.

Happy It’s Back!!
We missed this blend. It’s been a staple in our house for a number of years. Use it in stirfys and on pork.

Sesame Secret Spice Blend
This spice blend is excellent!
Purchased at the OOAK show in TO. Love this blend and made the chicken/rice dish on the site. Making it on repeat!
Best Taco Blend!
My second time purchasing Ghost Taco and it’s unreal. Perfect amount of spice and no fillers like starch that a lot of other blends have. Great on chicken and beef.
On top of that my package got stuck with the Canada Post Strike and when they learned I was still waiting they sent me a brand new package through a different shipper. Amazing customer service guys, thanks!

Ghost Taco spice blend
Hard to pick just one
What I love about these spices is that they may come individually packaged, but I still turn on a bit more wild, by mixing one package with another. Have you tried Taco Enhancer with Red Rub? Amazing
