Cauliflower, Spinach and Blue Cheese Frittata

Sharing is caring!

This frittata recipe combines cauliflower with spinach and blue cheese that together makes a tasty and colourful lunch dish!

I love frittatas but sometimes the challenge is coming up with new fillings.   Here I have used cauliflower for the main which goes lovely with the blue cheese.  A very yummy lunch or light supper.   This is a great low carb dish too!  You could substitute the blue cheese with the cheese of your choice.

This frittata is baked in a dish in the oven which is a slight change for me.  I normally cook my frittatas in a frying pan, then finish off under the grill.  It worked out well, so I may start baking more frittatas from now on.
