Smoked Salmon & Cottage Cheese Frittata
This is one of those brilliantly simple recipes that works at almost any time of day — a protein-packed breakfast, an easy lunch or a light dinner served with a crisp green salad. It’s also perfect for making ahead and taking to work, as it keeps well and is just as delicious cold as it is warm.
With eggs, smoked salmon, cottage cheese and ground almonds, this frittata is naturally rich in protein, helping to support muscle health, maintain energy levels and keep you feeling satisfied between meals. The salmon also provides beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, while the almonds add healthy fats, fibre and important micronutrients. Fresh dill and spring onions bring plenty of flavour, so you need very little else.
Best of all, there’s virtually no preparation involved; simply whisk everything together, pour into a dish and let the oven do the work. Nutritious, delicious and wonderfully practical; exactly the kind of recipe I love for making healthy eating easier.
