Just as a frittata is a great way to use any vegetables or meat sitting on your fridge shelf, an egg breakfast loaf has the same principle. Just add any ingredients or even some cheese for a fulfilling and an appealing dish. Anyone can bake a healthy egg breakfast recipe. It’s basically a frittata baked in a bread loaf tin.

For this egg breakfast loaf, I used grilled peppers and spinach. Mainly because I had just purchased a large jar of grilled peppers. They were cheaper than buying a bag full of peppers and since they were already grilled and core removed it was my shopping bargain of the day! The spinach was because I love spinach and wanted some colour to the dish. If you start the day with something colourful it can only be uplifting. Mind you, eating chocolate cake for breakfast would still give me the same uplift….

The first time I made this I just threw everything together without noting the ingredient measurements, thinking it would just be okay but not blog recipe worthy. I slapped myself as I munched a warm piece. Then gave myself a wedgie when I ate a slice cold. It was delicious and definitely blog recipe worthy. I had to look at the photos that fortunately I took to try and remember what I used. Second time round I was more organised with my trusty pad and pen by my side.

If you find that you don’t have the time for breakfast and have just enough time to shower and dress yourself before heading off to the daily commute, perhaps make this the night before. Cut a couple of slices and pack them with you to munch when you get to work. Don’t skip a meal, just plan ahead.

As well as breakfast, you could have this sliced for lunch served with a salad. Pack a few slices, or the whole egg vegetable breakfast loaf for a picnic too.
