Swiss and Pepper Portabella Frittata is a fun way to serve up breakfast or brunch in just a few simple steps and a couple minutes in the oven… if you love mushrooms then you’ll adore this recipe! 

Today is Fit Friday around here!!  

Miss Nichole from Pure Clean Fitness is here to hang out with us. I love having her visit and inspire our fitness! A Healthy Recipe, Swiss and Pepper Portabella Frittata from me +  a couple of awesome Treadmill Workouts from Nichole = a healthy, happy, and balanced life!

Swiss and Pepper Portabella Frittata is a fun twist on a frittata or country omelet which is basically a omelet that’s baked… like our Caprese French Country Omelet and Country French Omelet.    

Swiss and Pepper Portabella Frittata is baked right in the portabella mushroom caps with some added swiss cheese, peppers, and red onion!  It’s so filling and delicious that you’ve just gotta make some this weekend!  

Miss Nichole’s Treadmill Workouts. . .  
Summer schedules are crazy, at least at my house they are, which means I have to fit in runs and workouts whenever and where ever I can. In the heat of day with four kids at home I can’t necessarily head out for my run, those are the days when I am grateful for a treadmill. If I can get baby down for a nap and the other three busy with something I can sneak in a run in the basement, my seventy degree basement. I love having a workout plan for the treadmill, especially when I am really wishing for the open road, which means I am doing speed for hill work. Today we are doing both, or at least getting the option for both.

Swiss and Pepper Portabella Frittata is a fresh take on eggs for your weekend breakfast or brunch! 

Have an awesome Fit Friday!!

Much Love and Peace~
