  • Then, into a bowl crack three large eggs, give them a whisk and add 35g of grated cheddar cheese, 140g of cooked pasta along with all your chopped veggies and 90g of frozen peas.
  • To add a flavour punch, finely chop 3 to 4 fresh basil leaves and add to the mix along with 1/2 a teaspoon of onion powder and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder.
  • Mix until everything's incorporated and then add spoonfuls of your mixture to a muffin tin until they all equally filled.
  • Sprinkle on some extra grated cheddar cheese and pop into an oven at 200 degrees, 180 fan for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • We're up for a day out and packing two of the frittatas into our lunch box with some cucumber, a pack of the new Piccolo fruit hearts, and the new Piccolo popped rice chips for a little bit of crunch.
  • Now it's time to head out and enjoy!
