Spinach and Quinoa Frittata

What’s the Difference Between a Frittata and an Omelet?

There are a few distinctions between these two favorite egg breakfasts.

While making an omelet, you should whisk the eggs until they’re just about blended; when making a frittata, on the other hand, you should whisk the eggs together more forcefully to help bring about the custard-like texture.

Both sides of the frittata must be cooked while sometimes only the underside touches the pan with omelets.

What else you can do with spinach

Put it on pizza: Who said pizza can’t be nutritious? With spinach on top, it can. What’s more is that when cooked upon a layer of hot cheese and tomato, the combo is mouth-watering. Another benefit is that spinach is filling, which means you may be able to eat less pizza and still feel satisfied.

Use it for salad: You don’t necessarily need lettuce for your salad. Fresh spinach leaves are a great alternative. For a quick and simple yet tasty salad, here’s what you can do; add some veggies, chopped nuts and little chunks of cheese. For some lean protein, you can also include cottage cheese, Greek yogurt or tofu. You’re then ready to pour on some olive oil, vinegar and lemon juice. See our best salad recipes here.

Stir it into stews, stir-fries, and soups: Stirring spinach into one of these comforting dishes adds thickness as well as nutrients to the mix. Fresh spinach leaves make a fine accompaniment to Thai chicken with noodles, vegetable soup or white bean stew. You can even mix into this Red Lentil Sweet Potato Soup.
