My Fancy Spinach, Mushroom and Onion Frittata




My love of recipes loaded with veggies meets my desire for a lovely presentation in this delicious spinach, mushroom and onion frittata.  This is a great recipe and presentation for any type of brunch, breakfast, bridal or baby shower.  The fanciness comes from baking the frittata in a bundt cake pan in the oven.


Using a Bundt Cake Pan to Make My Fancy Frittata

I've made frittatas every which way under the sun.  This is my favorite way by far because the presentation is so nice and it's so easy to serve.  The frittatas made this way still remain attractive on the serving platter long after the serving begins.

Bueno!  My Fancy Frittata Gets Festive!

I usually double up the recipe when making frittatas.  They freeze up great to serve later.


Double the Frittata Fun!
