Keto Cauliflower & Arugula Frittata

17 ratings

This frittata is great for breakfast or a protein and veggie rich snack. Arugula is delicious wilted and with only 1g carbohydrate per cup, it's a wonderful addition to any meal. The frittata cooks quickly when you top the pan with a lid, so it’s great for an on-the-go meal. The frittata is topped with white cheddar, but you can use your favorite cheese!

      If you are in the UK, then arugula is better known as rocket.

          I just started my keto journey, and made this for dinner to go with pork chops. It was amazing!! I used the whole 5oz pkg of arugula, a bag of frozen cauli rice, and used extra sharp cheddar, keeping everything else the same. It think bacon added to it would be awesome! I might try that next time. It’s definitely going into my regular rotation. Thanks so much for this great recipe!

              Really good and filling! I used shredded cheese instead just cuz I like a more even melt and cheese distribution!

                  Does it matter on what cheese is used?

                    Any hard cheese works well. I used baby Swiss.

                    I made this little differently. I had had something similar in a restaurant and it was delicious. I sauteed the cauliflower and peppers, after which I added the eggs. I chopped up some cucumber finely and mixed it with the arugula. I tossed the arugula and cucumber olive oil with a small amount of white balsamic vinegar. When the frittata was done, I talked it with the arugula cucumber mixture. It's amazing. I love this recipe and the fact that I can switch it up with vegetables.
