#ad Weekend brunch is here and I’m making this S

#ad Weekend brunch is here and I’m making this SPRINGTIME FRITTATA with ingredients from my online grocery order from @mycnf ! Simple ingredients, fresh greens & herbs and some delicious local bread on the side - this is PERFECT to enjoy anytime this weekend.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients:
8 eggs
⅓ cup milk
3 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup ricotta
1/2 tsp salt
ground pepper
½ cup diced onions (about half small onion)
2 cups packed greens (arugula)
1/4 cup chopped herbs (mix of 2 tbsp chopped parsley, 2 tbsp chopped chives or dill)
1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350F and place a 10 inch skillet on the stovetop.
2. Whisk eggs, milk, ricotta, salt and pepper together and set aside.
3. Prep other ingredients: dice onions, measure out herbs and greens.
4. Add 3 tbsp oil to pan, saute onions for 5-7 minutes on medium heat to soften.
5. Stir in greens & herbs and just wilt greens - cook about 1 minute.
6. Pour the eggs & milk mixture into the pan, stir and then cook until the edges of the frittata just start to pull away, about 5-7 minutes.
7. Top with parmesan cheese and then transfer to the oven and bake to set, about 15-18 minutes.
8. Top with microgreens and serve with a side of bread & butter.

Happy Weekend!⁠⁠

The weather is looking good this weekend and this Grapefruit Lavender Spring Blossom Cocktail makes for a simple and beautiful sip for the springtime.⁠⁠

The natural tartness of the grapefruit is very refreshing, and when paired with a touch of lavender it’s a beautiful harmony of flavours.⁠⁠

#ad If there’s one thing that’s made life easier this past year is ordering groceries online from one of my favourite local stores! @mycnf Community Natural Foods was the first health food store I found when I moved to Calgary 13 years ago and it’s still a staple for me to this day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
SO recently I checked out their online grocery store to stock up on ingredients for a favourite weekend recipe - a SPRINGTIME FRITTATA! Stay tuned as I will be sharing the recipe this Saturday!

Salad season is coming so I'm pulling out some of my fav recipes like this Roasted Tomato, Arugula and Halloumi Salad with Pesto.⁠⁠

I love that the halloumi adds a delicious, savoury bite and a boost of protein! And the roasted tomatoes add juicy bursts of flavour throughout the salad. I think this will become one of your fav salads too!⁠⁠
