Veggie, Turkey Sausage, & Basil Frittata
Are you a savory or sweet breakfast person? We're actually a little both. Some days we want all savory, and some days a yogurt parfait sounds satisfying. We used to be strictly sweet, but over the years we've slowly converted to a little of both. Whenever we go out for breakfast, we usually get some sort of dish that includes both (aka a waffle on the side of our savory dish). We love to meal prep this Veggie, Turkey Sausage, and Basil Frittata and reheat it for breakfast throughout the week. The last time we made it, we may have eaten it for breakfast and lunch multiple days.
